Subject: [PATCH v6 7/7] powercap/drivers/dtpm: Allow dtpm node device creation through configfs

The DTPM framework is built on top of the powercap framework as a new
controller to act on the power of the devices. The approach is to
provide an unified API to do power limitation on devices which are
capable of that with different techniques.

In addition, the DTPM framework allows to create a hierarchical
representation of the devices in order to reflect the dependencies of
the power constraints we want to apply to a group of devices.

The hierarchy can be different for the same platform as it will depend
on the form factor (tablet, notebook, phone, ...), on other components
and/or a policy, and application scenario.

The kernel can not have such knowledge and only the SoC vendor can
setup its platform to fulfill the objectives of its hardware.

This patch adds the ability to create a DTPM hierarchy via
configfs. All DTPM capable devices are registered in a list, and the
creation of a configfs directory with the name of one of this device
will create a DTPM node in the DTPM powercap sysfs. If the name is not
in the list, a virtual node will be created instead. This virtual node
in the DTPM semantic is to aggregate the power characteristics of the
children.

In order to do the connection between the configfs and sysfs easily, a
'device' file contains the path to the corresponding DTPM powercap
node in sysfs (cross filesystems symlink is not supported by
configfs).

In order to not block any new features in the future, the hierarchical
constraints are stored under a top folder 'constraints', so sibling
can be created for other purposes if needed.

When the configfs was populated, the module can not be unloaded until
all the elements in the tree have been removed.

1) Resulting creation via mkdir:

root@...k960:/sys/kernel/config# tree dtpm/
dtpm/
└── constraints
    └── platform
            ├── device
	    └── soc
	        ├── device
		└── pkg
		     ├── device
		     ├── cpu0-cpufreq
		     │   └── device
		     ├── cpu4-cpufreq
		     │   └── device
		     └── panfrost-devfreq
		            └── device

2) The content of the 'device' file above

root@...k960:/sys/kernel/config# find dtpm/constraints -name "device" -exec cat {} \;
/devices/virtual/powercap/dtpm/dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:1
/devices/virtual/powercap/dtpm/dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0:2
/devices/virtual/powercap/dtpm/dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0:1
/devices/virtual/powercap/dtpm/dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0:0
/devices/virtual/powercap/dtpm/dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0
/devices/virtual/powercap/dtpm/dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0
/devices/virtual/powercap/dtpm/dtpm:0

3) The dtpm device creation node is reflected in sysfs:

root@...k960:/sys/devices/virtual/powercap/dtpm# find . -type d | grep dtpm
./dtpm:0
./dtpm:0/power
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/power
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0:1
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0:1/power
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0/power
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0:2
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0:2/power
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0:0
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0/dtpm:0:0:0:0/power
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:1
./dtpm:0/dtpm:0:0/dtpm:0:0:1/power
