[RFC 02/11] drivers: Add HTE subsystem

[Dipen Patel]

Some devices can timestamp system lines/signals/Buses in real-time
using the hardware counter or other hardware means which can give
finer granularity and help avoid jitter introduced by software means
of timestamping. To utilize such functionality there has to be
framework where such devices can register themselves as producers or
providers so that the consumers or clients devices can request specific
line from the providers. This patch introduces such subsystem as
hardware timestamping engine (HTE).

It provides below APIs for the provider:
- hte_register_chip() -- To register the HTE chip.
- hte_unregister_chip() -- To unregister the HTE chip.
- hte_push_ts_ns_atomic() -- To push timestamp data into HTE subsystem.

It provides below APIs for the consumer:
- of_hte_request_ts() -- To request timestamp functionality.
- devm_of_hte_request_ts() -- Managed version of the above.
- hte_req_ts_by_dt_node() -- To request timestamp functionality by
using HTE provider dt node.
- devm_hte_release_ts() -- The managed version to release timestamp
functionality and associated resources.
- hte_retrieve_ts_ns() -- To retrieve timestamps.
- hte_retrieve_ts_ns_wait() -- Same as above but blocking version.
- hte_enable_ts() -- To disable timestamp functionality.
- hte_disable_ts() -- To enable timestamp functionality.
- hte_available_ts() -- To query available timestamp data.
- hte_release_ts() -- To release timestamp functionality and its
associated resources.
- hte_get_clk_src_info() -- To query clock source information from
the provider

It provides centralized software buffer management per requested id to
store the timestamp data for the consumers as below:
- hte_set_buf_len() -- To set the buffer length.
- hte_get_buf_len() -- To get the buffer length.
- hte_set_buf_watermark() -- To set the software threshold/watermark.
- hte_get_buf_watermark() -- To get the software threshold/watermark.

The detail about parameters and API usage are described in each
functions definitions in drivers/hte/hte.c file.

The patch adds compilation support in Makefile and menu options in
Kconfig.

+          Hardware Timestamping Engine (HTE) Support.
+
+          Some devices provide hardware timestamping engine which can timestamp
+	  certain device lines/signals in realtime. This way to provide
+	  hardware assisted timestamp to generic signals like GPIOs, IRQs lines
+	  comes with benefit for the applications like autonomous machines
+	  needing accurate timestamping event with less jitter.
+
+	  This framework provides a generic interface to such HTE devices
+          within the Linux kernel. It provides an API to register and
+	  unregister a HTE provider chip, configurable sw buffer to
+	  store the timestamps, push the timestamp from the HTE providers and
+	  retrieve timestamps for the consumers. It also provides means for the
+	  consumers to request signals it wishes to hardware timestamp and
+	  release them if not required.
+
+          If unsure, say no.
