drivers: psci: PSCI checker module

On arm and arm64, PSCI is one of the possible firmware interfaces
used for power management. This includes both turning CPUs on and off,
and suspending them (entering idle states).

This patch adds a PSCI checker module that enables basic testing of
PSCI operations during startup. There are two main tests: CPU
hotplugging and suspending.

In the hotplug tests, the hotplug API is used to turn off and on again
all CPUs in the system, and then all CPUs in each cluster, checking
the consistency of the return codes.

In the suspend tests, a high-priority thread is created on each core
and uses low-level cpuidle functionalities to enter suspend, in all
the possible states and multiple times. This should allow a maximum
number of CPUs to enter the same sleep state at the same or slightly
different time.

In essence, the suspend tests use a principle similar to that of the
intel_powerclamp driver (drivers/thermal/intel_powerclamp.c), but the
threads are only kept for the duration of the test (they are already
gone when userspace is started) and it does not require to stop/start
the tick.

While in theory power management PSCI functions (CPU_{ON,OFF,SUSPEND})
could be directly called, this proved too difficult as it would imply
the duplication of all the logic used by the kernel to allow for a
clean shutdown/bringup/suspend of the CPU (the deepest sleep states
implying potentially the shutdown of the CPU).

Note that this file cannot be compiled as a loadable module, since it
uses a number of non-exported identifiers (essentially for
PSCI-specific checks and direct use of cpuidle) and relies on the
absence of userspace to avoid races when calling hotplug and cpuidle
functions.

For now at least, CONFIG_PSCI_CHECKER is mutually exclusive with
CONFIG_TORTURE_TEST, because torture tests may also use hotplug and
cause false positives in the hotplug tests.

firmware: Add Tegra IVC and BPMP support

IVC is an inter-processor communication protocol that uses shared memory
to exchange data between processors. The BPMP driver makes use of this
to communicate with the Boot and Power Management Processor (BPMP) and
uses an additional hardware synchronization primitive from the HSP block
to signal availability of new data (doorbell).

Firmware running on the BPMP implements a number of services such as the
control of clocks and resets within the system, or the ability to ungate
or gate power partitions.

firmware: tegra: Add IVC library

The Inter-VM communication (IVC) is a communication protocol which is
designed for interprocessor communication (IPC) or the communication
between the hypervisor and the virtual machine with a guest OS.

Message channels are used to communicate between processors. They are
backed by DRAM or SRAM, so care must be taken to maintain coherence of
data.

The IVC library maintains memory-based descriptors for the transmission
and reception channels as well as the data coherence of the counter and
payload. Clients, such as the driver for the BPMP firmware, can use the
library to exchange messages with remote processors.

Based on work by Peter Newman <pnewman@nvidia.com> and Joseph Lo
<josephl@nvidia.com>.

firmware: Add basic support for TI System Control Interface (TI-SCI) protocol

Texas Instrument's System Control Interface (TI-SCI) Message Protocol
is used in Texas Instrument's System on Chip (SoC) such as those
in keystone family K2G SoC to communicate between various compute
processors with a central system controller entity.

TI-SCI message protocol provides support for management of various
hardware entities within the SoC. Add support driver to allow
communication with system controller entity within the SoC using the
mailbox client.

We introduce the basic registration and query capability for the
driver protocol as part of this change. Subsequent patches add in
functionality specific to the TI-SCI features.
