The Clock-and-Reset controller resides in a core power domain on NVIDIA
Tegra SoCs. In order to support voltage scaling of the core power domain,
we hook up DVFS-capable clocks to the core GENPD for managing of the
GENPD's performance state based on the clock changes.
Some clocks don't have any specific physical hardware unit that backs
them, like root PLLs and system clock and they have theirs own voltage
requirements. This patch adds new clk-device driver that backs the clocks
and provides runtime PM functionality for them. A virtual clk-device is
created for each such DVFS-capable clock at the clock's registration time
by the new tegra_clk_register() helper. Driver changes clock's device
GENPD performance state based on clk-rate notifications.
In result we have this sequence of events:
1. Clock driver creates virtual device for selective clocks, enables
runtime PM for the created device and registers the clock.
2. Clk-device driver starts to listen to clock rate changes.
3. Something changes clk rate or enables/disables clk.
4. CCF core propagates the change through the clk tree.
5. Clk-device driver gets clock rate-change notification or GENPD core
handles prepare/unprepare of the clock.
6. Clk-device driver changes GENPD performance state on clock rate
change.
7. GENPD driver changes voltage regulator state change.
8. The regulator state is committed to hardware via I2C.
We rely on fact that DVFS is not needed for Tegra I2C and that Tegra I2C
driver already keeps clock always-prepared. Hence I2C subsystem stays
independent from the clk power management and there are no deadlock spots
in the sequence.
Currently all clocks are registered very early during kernel boot when the
device driver core isn't available yet. The clk-device can't be created
at that time. This patch splits the registration of the clocks in two
phases:
1. Register all essential clocks which don't use RPM and are needed
during early boot.
2. Register at a later boot time the rest of clocks.
This patch adds power management support for Tegra20 and Tegra30 clocks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
