Hi all,

This is a follow-up patch aiming to add EM modification due to chip binning.
The first RFC and the discussion can be found here [1].

It uses Exynos chip driver code as a 1st user. The EM framework has been
extended to handle this use case easily, when the voltage has been changed
after setup. On my Odroid-xu4 in some OPPs I can observe ~20% power difference.
According to that data in driver tables it could be up to ~29%.

This chip binning is applicable to a lot of SoCs, so the EM framework should
make it easy to update. It uses the existing OPP and DT information to
re-calculate the new power values.

It has dependency on Exynos SoC driver tree.

Changes:
v4:
- added asterisk in the comment section (test robot)
- change the patch 2/4 header name and use 'Refactor'
v3:
- updated header description patch 2/4 (Dietmar)
- removed 2 sentences from comment and adjusted in patch 3/4 (Dietmar)
- patch 4/4 re-phrased code comment (Dietmar)
- collected tags (Krzysztof, Viresh)
v2:
- removed 'ret' from error message which wasn't initialized (Christian)
v1:
- exported the OPP calculation function from the OPP/OF so it can be
used from EM fwk (Viresh)
- refactored EM updating function to re-use common code
- added new EM function which can be used by chip device drivers which
modify the voltage in OPPs
RFC is at [1]

LGTM.

Just two very minor things which I mentioned in the individual patches.

Thank you for the review. I will send the v5 with those.
