Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/5] Allow genpd providers to power off domains on sync state

There have been already a couple of tries to make the genpd "disable
unused" late initcall skip the powering off of domains that might be
needed until later on (i.e. until some consumer probes). The conclusion
was that the provider could return -EBUSY from the power_off callback
until the provider's sync state has been reached. This patch series tries
to provide a proof-of-concept that is working on Qualcomm platforms.

I've been doing extensive testing on SM8450, but I've also spinned this
on my X13s (SC8280XP). Both patches that add the sync state callback to
the SC8280XP and SM8450 are here to provide context. Once we agree on
the form, I intend to add the sync state callback to all gdsc providers.

Currently, some of the gdsc providers might not reach sync state due to
list of consumers not probing yet (or at all). The sync state can be
enforced by writing 1 to the state_synced sysfs attribute of the
provider, thanks to Saravana's commit [1] which has been already merged.
