Some devices have an optimization in place to enable the firmware to
be retaineed during a system reboot, so after reboot the device can skip
requesting and loading the firmware. This can save up to 1s in load
time. The mt7601u 802.11 device happens to be such a device.
When these devices retain the firmware on a reboot and then suspend
they can miss looking for the firmware on resume. To help with this we
need a way to cache the firmware when such an optimization has taken
place.

USB Type-C connectors consist of various muxes and switches
that route the pins on the connector to the right locations.
The USB Type-C drivers need to be able to control the muxes,
as they are the ones that know things like the cable plug
orientation, and the current mode that was negotiated with
the partner.
This introduces a small API for registering and controlling
cable plug orientation switches, and separate small API for
registering and controlling pin multiplexer/demultiplexer
switches that are needed with Accessory/Alternate Modes.

Several frameworks - clk, gpio, phy, pmw, etc. - maintain
lookup tables for describing connections and provide custom
API for handling them. This introduces a single generic
lookup table and API for the connections.
The motivation for this commit is centralizing the
connection lookup, but the goal is to ultimately extract the
connection descriptions also from firmware by using the
fwnode_graph_* functions and other mechanisms that are
available.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This includes some infrastructure changes in the PM core, mostly
related to integration between runtime PM and system-wide suspend and
hibernation, plus some driver changes depending on them and fixes for
issues in that area which have become quite apparent recently.
Also included are changes making more x86-based systems use the Low
Power Sleep S0 _DSM interface by default, which turned out to be
necessary to handle power button wakeups from suspend-to-idle on
Surface Pro3.
On the cpufreq front we have fixes and cleanups in the core, some new
hardware support, driver updates and the removal of some unused code
from the CPU cooling thermal driver.
Apart from this, the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is
prepared to be used with power domains in the future and there is a
usual bunch of assorted fixes and cleanups.
Specifics:
- Define a PM driver flag allowing drivers to request that their
devices be left in suspend after system-wide transitions to the
working state if possible and add support for it to the PCI bus
type and the ACPI PM domain (Rafael Wysocki).
- Make the PM core carry out optimizations for devices with driver PM
flags set in some cases and make a few drivers set those flags
(Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix and clean up wrapper routines allowing runtime PM device
callbacks to be re-used for system-wide PM, change the generic
power domains (genpd) framework to stop using those routines
incorrectly and fix up a driver depending on that behavior of genpd
(Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Fix and clean up the PM core's device wakeup framework and
re-factor system-wide PM core code related to device wakeup
(Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Brian Norris).
- Make more x86-based systems use the Low Power Sleep S0 _DSM
interface by default (to fix power button wakeup from
suspend-to-idle on Surface Pro3) and add a kernel command line
switch to tell it to ignore the system sleep blacklist in the ACPI
core (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix a race condition related to cpufreq governor module removal and
clean up the governor management code in the cpufreq core (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Drop the unused generic code related to the handling of the static
power energy usage model in the CPU cooling thermal driver along
with the corresponding documentation (Viresh Kumar).
- Add mt2712 support to the Mediatek cpufreq driver (Andrew-sh
Cheng).
- Add a new operating point to the imx6ul and imx6q cpufreq drivers
and switch the latter to using clk_bulk_get() (Anson Huang, Dong
Aisheng).
- Add support for multiple regulators to the TI cpufreq driver along
with a new DT binding related to that and clean up that driver
somewhat (Dave Gerlach).
- Fix a powernv cpufreq driver regression leading to incorrect CPU
frequency reporting, fix that driver to deal with non-continguous
P-states correctly and clean it up (Gautham Shenoy, Shilpasri
Bhat).
- Add support for frequency scaling on Armada 37xx SoCs through the
generic DT cpufreq driver (Gregory CLEMENT).
- Fix error code paths in the mvebu cpufreq driver (Gregory CLEMENT).
- Fix a transition delay setting regression in the longhaul cpufreq
driver (Viresh Kumar).
- Add Skylake X (server) support to the intel_pstate cpufreq driver
and clean up that driver somewhat (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Clean up the cpufreq statistics collection code (Viresh Kumar).
- Drop cluster terminology and dependency on physical_package_id from
the PSCI driver and drop dependency on arm_big_little from the SCPI
cpufreq driver (Sudeep Holla).
- Add support for system-wide suspend and resume to the RAPL power
capping driver and drop a redundant semicolon from it (Zhen Han,
Luis de Bethencourt).
- Make SPI domain validation (in the SCSI SPI transport driver) and
system-wide suspend mutually exclusive as they rely on the same
underlying mechanism and cannot be carried out at the same time
(Bart Van Assche).
- Fix the computation of the amount of memory to preallocate in the
hibernation core and clean up one function in there (Rainer Fiebig,
Kyungsik Lee).
- Prepare the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework for being
used with power domains and clean up one function in it (Viresh
Kumar, Wei Yongjun).
- Clean up the generic sysfs interface for device PM (Andy
Shevchenko).
- Fix several minor issues in power management frameworks and clean
them up a bit (Arvind Yadav, Bjorn Andersson, Geert Uytterhoeven,
Gustavo Silva, Julia Lawall, Luis de Bethencourt, Paul Gortmaker,
Sergey Senozhatsky, gaurav jindal).
- Make it easier to disable PM via Kconfig (Mark Brown).
- Clean up the cpupower and intel_pstate_tracer utilities (Doug
Smythies, Laura Abbott)"

Make the PM core handle DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED directly for
devices whose "noirq", "late" and "early" driver callbacks are
invoked directly by it.
Namely, make it skip all of the system-wide resume callbacks for
such devices with DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED set if they are in
runtime suspend during the "noirq" phase of system-wide suspend
(or analogous) transitions or the system transition under way is
a proper suspend (rather than anything related to hibernation) and
the device's wakeup settings are compatible with runtime PM (that
is, the device cannot generate wakeup signals at all or it is
allowed to wake up the system from sleep).
Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Make the PM core avoid invoking the "late" and "noirq" system-wide
suspend (or analogous) callbacks provided by device drivers directly
for devices with DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND set that are in runtime
suspend during the "late" and "noirq" phases of system-wide suspend
(or analogous) transitions. That is only done for devices without
any middle-layer "late" and "noirq" suspend callbacks (to avoid
confusing the middle layer if there is one).
The underlying observation is that runtime PM is disabled for devices
during the "late" and "noirq" system-wide suspend phases, so if they
remain in runtime suspend from the "late" phase forward, it doesn't
make sense to invoke the "late" and "noirq" callbacks provided by
the drivers for them (arguably, the device is already suspended and
in the right state). Thus, if the remaining driver suspend callbacks
are to be invoked directly by the core, they can be skipped.
This change really makes it possible for, say, platform device
drivers to re-use runtime PM suspend and resume callbacks by
pointing ->suspend_late and ->resume_early, respectively (and
possibly the analogous hibernation-related callback pointers too),
to them without adding any extra "is the device already suspended?"
type of checks to the callback routines, as long as they will be
invoked directly by the core.

Define and document a new driver flag, DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED, to
instruct the PM core and middle-layer (bus type, PM domain, etc.)
code that it is desirable to leave the device in runtime suspend
after system-wide transitions to the working state (for example,
the device may be slow to resume and it may be better to avoid
resuming it right away).
Generally, the middle-layer code involved in the handling of the
device is expected to indicate to the PM core whether or not the
device may be left in suspend with the help of the device's
power.may_skip_resume status bit. That has to happen in the "noirq"
phase of the preceding system suspend (or analogous) transition.
The middle layer is then responsible for handling the device as
appropriate in its "noirq" resume callback which is executed
regardless of whether or not the device may be left suspended, but
the other resume callbacks (except for ->complete) will be skipped
automatically by the core if the device really can be left in
suspend.
The additional power.must_resume status bit introduced for the
implementation of this mechanisn is used internally by the PM core
to track the requirement to resume the device (which may depend on
its children etc).

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.15 kernel cycle:
Core:
- The pin control Kconfig entry PINCTRL is now turned into a
menuconfig option. This obviously has the implication of making the
subsystem menu visible in menuconfig. This is happening because of
two things:
(a) Intel have started to deploy and depend on pin controllers in
a way that is affecting users directly. This happens on the
highly integrated laptop chipsets named after geographical
places: baytrail, broxton, cannonlake, cedarfork, cherryview,
denverton, geminilake, lewisburg, merrifield, sunrisepoint...
It started a while back and now it is ever more evident that
this is crucial infrastructure for x86 laptops and not an
embedded obscurity anymore. Users need to be aware.
(b) Pin control expanders on I2C and SPI that are arch-agnostic.
Currently Semtech SX150X and Microchip MCP28x08 but more are
expected. Users will have to be able to configure these in
directly for their set-up.
- Just go and select GPIOLIB now that we made sure that GPIOLIB is a
very vanilla subsystem. Do not depend on it, if we need it, select
it.
- Exposing the pin control subsystem in menuconfig uncovered a bunch
of obscure bugs that are now hopefully fixed, all more or less
pertaining to Blackfin.
- Unified namespace for cross-calls between pin control and GPIO.
- New support for clock skew/delay generic DT bindings and generic
pin config options for this.
- Minor documentation improvements.
Various:
- The Renesas SH-PFC pin controller has evolved a lot. It seems
Renesas are churning out new SoCs by the minute.
- A bunch of non-critical fixes for the Rockchip driver.
- Improve the use of library functions instead of open coding.
- Support the MCP28018 variant in the MCP28x08 driver.
- Static constifying"

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"There are no real big ticket items here this time.
The most noticeable change is probably the relocation of the OPP
(Operating Performance Points) framework to its own directory under
drivers/ as it has grown big enough for that. Also Viresh is now going
to maintain it and send pull requests for it to me, so you will see
this change in the git history going forward (but still not right
now).
Another noticeable set of changes is the modifications of the PM core,
the PCI subsystem and the ACPI PM domain to allow of more integration
between system-wide suspend/resume and runtime PM. For now it's just a
way to avoid resuming devices from runtime suspend unnecessarily
during system suspend (if the driver sets a flag to indicate its
readiness for that) and in the works is an analogous mechanism to
allow devices to stay suspended after system resume.
In addition to that, we have some changes related to supporting
frequency-invariant CPU utilization metrics in the scheduler and in
the schedutil cpufreq governor on ARM and changes to add support for
device performance states to the generic power domains (genpd)
framework.
The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups of various sorts.
Specifics:
- Relocate the OPP (Operating Performance Points) framework to its
own directory under drivers/ and add support for power domain
performance states to it (Viresh Kumar).
- Modify the PM core, the PCI bus type and the ACPI PM domain to
support power management driver flags allowing device drivers to
specify their capabilities and preferences regarding the handling
of devices with enabled runtime PM during system suspend/resume and
clean up that code somewhat (Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson).
- Add frequency-invariant accounting support to the task scheduler on
ARM and ARM64 (Dietmar Eggemann).
- Fix PM QoS device resume latency framework to prevent "no
restriction" requests from overriding requests with specific
requirements and drop the confusing PM_QOS_FLAG_REMOTE_WAKEUP
device PM QoS flag (Rafael Wysocki).
- Drop legacy class suspend/resume operations from the PM core and
drop legacy bus type suspend and resume callbacks from ARM/locomo
(Rafael Wysocki).
- Add min/max frequency support to devfreq and clean it up somewhat
(Chanwoo Choi).
- Rework wakeup support in the generic power domains (genpd)
framework and update some of its users accordingly (Geert
Uytterhoeven).
- Convert timers in the PM core to use timer_setup() (Kees Cook).
- Add support for exposing the SLP_S0 (Low Power S0 Idle) residency
counter based on the LPIT ACPI table on Intel platforms (Srinivas
Pandruvada).
- Add per-CPU PM QoS resume latency support to the ladder cpuidle
governor (Ramesh Thomas).
- Fix a deadlock between the wakeup notify handler and the notifier
removal in the ACPI core (Ville Syrjälä).
- Fix a cpufreq schedutil governor issue causing it to use stale
cached frequency values sometimes (Viresh Kumar).
- Fix an issue in the system suspend core support code causing wakeup
events detection to fail in some cases (Rajat Jain).
- Fix the generic power domains (genpd) framework to prevent the PM
core from using the direct-complete optimization with it as that is
guaranteed to fail (Ulf Hansson).
- Fix a minor issue in the cpuidle core and clean it up a bit (Gaurav
Jindal, Nicholas Piggin).
- Fix and clean up the intel_idle and ARM cpuidle drivers (Jason
Baron, Len Brown, Leo Yan).
- Fix a couple of minor issues in the OPP framework and clean it up
(Arvind Yadav, Fabio Estevam, Sudeep Holla, Tobias Jordan).
- Fix and clean up some cpufreq drivers and fix a minor issue in the
cpufreq statistics code (Arvind Yadav, Bhumika Goyal, Fabio
Estevam, Gautham Shenoy, Gustavo Silva, Marek Szyprowski, Masahiro
Yamada, Robert Jarzmik, Zumeng Chen).
- Fix minor issues in the system suspend and hibernation core, in
power management documentation and in the AVS (Adaptive Voltage
Scaling) framework (Helge Deller, Himanshu Jha, Joe Perches, Rafael
Wysocki).
- Fix some issues in the cpupower utility and document that Shuah
Khan is going to maintain it going forward (Prarit Bhargava, Shuah
Khan)"

Define and document a SMART_SUSPEND flag to instruct bus types and PM
domains that the system suspend callbacks provided by the driver can
cope with runtime-suspended devices, so from the driver's perspective
it should be safe to leave devices in runtime suspend during system
suspend.
Setting that flag may also cause middle-layer code (bus types,
PM domains etc.) to skip invocations of the ->suspend_late and
->suspend_noirq callbacks provided by the driver if the device
is in runtime suspend at the beginning of the "late" phase of
the system-wide suspend transition, in which case the driver's
system-wide resume callbacks may be invoked back-to-back with
its ->runtime_suspend callback, so the driver has to be able to
cope with that too.

The motivation for this change is to provide a way to work around
a problem with the direct-complete mechanism used for avoiding
system suspend/resume handling for devices in runtime suspend.
The problem is that some middle layer code (the PCI bus type and
the ACPI PM domain in particular) returns positive values from its
system suspend ->prepare callbacks regardless of whether the driver's
->prepare returns a positive value or 0, which effectively prevents
drivers from being able to control the direct-complete feature.
Some drivers need that control, however, and the PCI bus type has
grown its own flag to deal with this issue, but since it is not
limited to PCI, it is better to address it by adding driver flags at
the core level.
To that end, add a driver_flags field to struct dev_pm_info for flags
that can be set by device drivers at the probe time to inform the PM
core and/or bus types, PM domains and so on on the capabilities and/or
preferences of device drivers. Also add two static inline helpers
for setting that field and testing it against a given set of flags
and make the driver core clear it automatically on driver remove
and probe failures.
Define and document two PM driver flags related to the direct-
complete feature: NEVER_SKIP and SMART_PREPARE that can be used,
respectively, to indicate to the PM core that the direct-complete
mechanism should never be used for the device and to inform the
middle layer code (bus types, PM domains etc) that it can only
request the PM core to use the direct-complete mechanism for
the device (by returning a positive value from its ->prepare
callback) if it also has been requested by the driver.
While at it, make the core check pm_runtime_suspended() when
setting power.direct_complete so that it doesn't need to be
checked by ->prepare callbacks.
