07cce74a7b PM / OPP: handle allocation of device_opp in a separate routine
Get the 'device_opp' allocation code into a separate routine to keep only the
necessary part in dev_pm_opp_add_dynamic().

Also do s/sizeof(struct device_opp)/sizeof(*dev_opp) and remove the print
message on kzalloc() failure as checkpatch warns for that.

1c6a662f89 PM / OPP: replace kfree with kfree_rcu while freeing 'struct device_opp'
Somehow one of the instance of freeing resources failed to use kfree_rcu() and
used kfree() instead. This might cause problems as the node might be referenced
by readers under rcu locks and we must wait for the rcu grace period as well.

While we are at it, also update comment over 'struct device_opp' to mention why
we are waiting for both rcu and srcu grace periods.

By mistake we called find_device_opp() twice in of_free_opp_table(), fix it.

Generated diff doesn't show the problem well and so here is the code snippet:

	struct device_opp *dev_opp = find_device_opp(dev);
	struct dev_pm_opp *opp, *tmp;

	/* Check for existing list for 'dev' */

129eec55df PM / OPP Introduce APIs to remove OPPs
OPPs are created statically (from DT) or dynamically. Currently we don't free
OPPs that are created statically, when the module unloads. And so if the module
is inserted back again, we get warning for duplicate OPPs as the same were
already present.

Also, there might be a need to remove dynamic OPPs in future and so API for that
is also added.

This patch adds helper APIs to remove/free existing static and dynamic OPPs.

Because the OPPs are used both under RCU and SRCU, we have to wait for grace
period of both. And so are using kfree_rcu() from within call_srcu().

38393409da PM / OPP mark OPPs as 'static' or 'dynamic'
Static OPPs are the ones created from Device Tree entries and dynamic are the
ones created at runtime by calling dev_pm_opp_add().

There is a need to distinguish them as we need to free static OPPs from cpufreq
drivers when they are removed.

So, add another field 'dynamic' in 'struct dev_pm_opp' to keep this information.

are:

 0:         On success OR

 -EEXIST:   Freq are same and volt are different OR

0f5c890e9b PM / OPP: Remove cpufreq wrapper dependency on internal data organization
CPUFREQ custom functions for OPP (Operating Performance Points)
currently exist inside the OPP library. These custom functions currently
depend on internal data structures to pick up OPP information to create
the cpufreq table.  For example, the cpufreq table is created precisely
in the same order of how OPP entries are stored inside the list implementation.

This kind of tight interdependency is purely artificial since the same
functionality can be achieved using the generic OPP functions
meant to do the same. This interdependency also limits the independent
modification of cpufreq and OPP library.

So use the generic dev_pm_opp_find_freq_ceil function that achieves the
table organization as we currently use.

As a result of this, we dont need to use the internal device_opp
structure anymore, and we hence we can switch over to rcu lock instead
of the mutex holding the internal list lock.

This breaking of dependency on internal data structure imposes no change
to usage of these.

NOTE: This change is a precursor to moving this cpufreq specific logic
out of the generic library into cpufreq.

5070158804 cpufreq: rename index as driver_data in cpufreq_frequency_table
The "index" field of struct cpufreq_frequency_table was never an
index and isn't used at all by the cpufreq core.  It only is useful
for cpufreq drivers for their internal purposes.

Many people nowadays blindly set it in ascending order with the
assumption that the core will use it, which is a mistake.

Rename it to "driver_data" as that's what its purpose is. All of its
users are updated accordingly.

0779726cc2 PM / OPP: predictable fail results for opp_find* functions, v2
Currently the opp_find* functions return -ENODEV when:
a) it cant find a device (e.g. request for an OPP search on device
   which was not registered)
b) When it cant find a match for the search strategy used

This makes life a little in-efficient for users such as devfreq
to make reasonable judgement before switching search strategies.

So, standardize the return results as following:
 -EINVAL for bad pointer parameters
 -ENODEV when device cannot be found
 -ERANGE when search fails

This has the following benefit for devfreq implementation:
The search fails when an unregistered device pointer is provided.
This is a trigger to change the search direction and search for
a better fit, however, if we cannot differentiate between a valid
search range failure Vs an unregistered device, second search goes
through the same fail return condition. This can be avoided by
appropriate handling of error return code.

With this change, we also fix devfreq for the improved search
strategy with updated error code.

e1f60b292f PM: Introduce library for device-specific OPPs (v7)
SoCs have a standard set of tuples consisting of frequency and

definitions of OPP varies over silicon versions. For a specific domain,
we can have a set of {frequency, voltage} pairs. As the kernel boots
and more information is available, a default set of these are activated
based on the precise nature of device. Further on operation, based on
conditions prevailing in the system (such as temperature), some OPP
availability may be temporarily controlled by the SoC frameworks.

To implement an OPP, some sort of power management support is necessary
hence this library depends on CONFIG_PM.

Contributions include:
Sanjeev Premi for the initial concept:
	http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/50998/
Kevin Hilman for converting original design to device-based.
Kevin Hilman and Paul Walmsey for cleaning up many of the function
abstractions, improvements and data structure handling.
Romit Dasgupta for using enums instead of opp pointers.
Thara Gopinath, Eduardo Valentin and Vishwanath BS for fixes and
cleanups.
Linus Walleij for recommending this layer be made generic for usage
in other architectures beyond OMAP and ARM.
Mark Brown, Andrew Morton, Rafael J. Wysocki, Paul E. McKenney for
valuable improvements.
