Subject: [PATCH RFC] soc: amlogic: meson-ee-pwrc: Drop the .shutdown callback from the driver

Stefan reports that rebooting his ODROID-N2+ (using a G12B SoC) results
in the board hanging. His kernel config uses:
  CONFIG_MESON_EE_PM_DOMAINS=y
  CONFIG_DRM_MESON=m

He reports that his kernel config results in the DRM driver's .shutdown
callback to be executed after the power domain driver's .shutdown
callback. That's problematic because meson_ee_pwrc_shutdown disables the
clock which are used by the VPU IP. This causes the board to hang.

Further he reports that changing from CONFIG_DRM_MESON=m to
CONFIG_DRM_MESON=y reverses the order in which the DRM and power domain
driver's shutdown functions are executed, making the reboot successful.

The reason why we use meson_ee_pwrc_shutdown is because of the VPU power
domain (which is causing the problem described above). It can be left
enabled by u-boot. According to the original TOFIX comment in
meson_ee_pwrc_init_domain we need to be careful because disabling the
power domain could "cause system errors". As a workaround the clocks
are manually enabled in meson_ee_pwrc_init_domain and the power domain
is marked as GENPD_FLAG_ALWAYS_ON (so it can never be turned off).

Experimenting has shown that the power domain itself can be disabled as
long as we keep the clocks enabled if u-boot enabled the power domain
but we don't have any driver enabled for the VPU (CONFIG_DRM_MESON=n).

Keeping the clocks enabled is the responsibility of the CCF drivers, not
the power domain driver. Even better: this is already covered as all
gates in the VPU and VAPB tree on GX an G12 SoCs have the
CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED flag set, meaning: if the bootloader has previously
enabled the clock we're not touching it until a driver explicitly asks
to enable (and then disable) it. In case of CONFIG_DRM_MESON=n we're
never calling meson_ee_pwrc_on, meaning that we always keep the state of
the clocks as set by u-boot.

The original TOFIX comment also mentioned that we need to make sure not
to mess up the clock's prepare/enable ref-counters. This is the only
requirement that's left for the meson-ee-pwrc driver that needs to be
managed for the VPU power domain.

Three steps can improve this situation:
- Don't prepare and enable the clocks (just to fix the ref-counting) in
  meson_ee_pwrc_init_domain if u-boot left that power domain enabled.
  Instead, remember if the clocks are enabled in meson_ee_pwrc_{on,off}
  and only disable them if we have previously turned them on ourselves.
- Drop GENPD_FLAG_ALWAYS_ON as we can always manage the state of the VPU
  power domain if both the power domain controller and DRM driver are
  enabled (=m or =y). If the power domain driver is enabled but the DRM
  driver is disabled we can still use meson_ee_pwrc_off because it's not
  trying to disable the clocks anymore
- Drop meson_ee_pwrc_shutdown as it's the responsibility of the genpd
  framework to call meson_ee_pwrc_off when needed (either when a power
  domain is being disabled - regardless of whether it's was used by a
  driver before or not). Now there's also no more shutdown callback
  ordering dependency between the power domain driver and other drivers
  anymore.

Neil, I would like you to specifically review (and re-test) the original
TOFIX part. I *believe* that I understand the original problem and hope
that my approach also works in that scenario, but I am not 100% sure.

Kevin, as you're my go-to genpd expert I am also asking you to review
this to point out any issues you see.
