hwmon: Add Baikal-T1 PVT sensor driver

Baikal-T1 SoC provides an embedded process, voltage and temperature
sensor to monitor an internal SoC environment (chip temperature, supply
voltage and process monitor) and on time detect critical situations,
which may cause the system instability and even damages. The IP-block
is based on the Analog Bits PVT sensor, but is equipped with a
dedicated control wrapper, which provides a MMIO registers-based access
to the sensor core functionality (APB3-bus based) and exposes an
additional functions like thresholds/data ready interrupts, its status
and masks, measurements timeout. All of these is used to create a hwmon
driver being added to the kernel by this commit.

The driver implements support for the hardware monitoring capabilities
of Baikal-T1 process, voltage and temperature sensors. PVT IP-core
consists of one temperature and four voltage sensors, each of which is
implemented as a dedicated hwmon channel config.

The driver can optionally provide the hwmon alarms for each sensor the
PVT controller supports. The alarms functionality is made compile-time
configurable due to the hardware interface implementation peculiarity,
which is connected with an ability to convert data from only one sensor
at a time. Additional limitation is that the controller performs the
thresholds checking synchronously with the data conversion procedure.
Due to these limitations in order to have the hwmon alarms
automatically detected the driver code must switch from one sensor to
another, read converted data and manually check the threshold status
bits. Depending on the measurements timeout settings this design may
cause additional burden on the system performance. By default if the
alarms kernel config is disabled the data conversion is performed by
the driver on demand when read operation is requested via corresponding
_input-file.

+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements support for the hardware monitoring capabilities of the
+embedded into Baikal-T1 process, voltage and temperature sensors. PVT IP-core
+consists of one temperature and four voltage sensors, which can be used to
+monitor the chip internal environment like heating, supply voltage and
+transistors performance. The driver can optionally provide the hwmon alarms
+for each sensor the PVT controller supports. The alarms functionality is made
+compile-time configurable due to the hardware interface implementation
+peculiarity, which is connected with an ability to convert data from only one
+sensor at a time. Additional limitation is that the controller performs the
+thresholds checking synchronously with the data conversion procedure. Due to
+these in order to have the hwmon alarms automatically detected the driver code
+must switch from one sensor to another, read converted data and manually check
+the threshold status bits. Depending on the measurements timeout settings
+(update_interval sysfs node value) this design may cause additional burden on
+the system performance. So in case if alarms are unnecessary in your system
+design it's recommended to have them disabled to prevent the PVT IRQs being
+periodically raised to get the data cache/alarms status up to date. By default
+in alarm-less configuration the data conversion is performed by the driver
+on demand when read operation is requested via corresponding _input-file.
+
+Temperature Monitoring
+----------------------
+
+Temperature is measured with 10-bit resolution and reported in millidegree
+Celsius. The driver performs all the scaling by itself therefore reports true
+temperatures that don't need any user-space adjustments. While the data
+translation formulae isn't linear, which gives us non-linear discreteness,
+it's close to one, but giving a bit better accuracy for higher temperatures.
+The temperature input is mapped as follows (the last column indicates the input
+ranges)::
+
+	temp1: CPU embedded diode	-48.38C - +147.438C
+
+In case if the alarms kernel config is enabled in the driver the temperature input
+has associated min and max limits which trigger an alarm when crossed.
+
+Voltage Monitoring
+------------------
+
+The voltage inputs are also sampled with 10-bit resolution and reported in
+millivolts. But in this case the data translation formulae is linear, which
+provides a constant measurements discreteness. The data scaling is also
+performed by the driver, so returning true millivolts. The voltage inputs are
+mapped as follows (the last column indicates the input ranges)::
+
+	in0: VDD		(processor core)		0.62V - 1.168V
+	in1: Low-Vt		(low voltage threshold)		0.62V - 1.168V
+	in2: High-Vt		(high voltage threshold)	0.62V - 1.168V
+	in3: Standard-Vt	(standard voltage threshold)	0.62V - 1.168V
+
+In case if the alarms config is enabled in the driver the voltage inputs
+have associated min and max limits which trigger an alarm when crossed.
