Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] Use APIs in gdsc genpd to switch gdsc mode for
 venus v4 core

The Venus driver requires vcodec GDSC to be ON in SW mode for clock
operations and move it back to HW mode to gain power benefits. Earlier,
as there is no interface to switch the GDSC mode from GenPD framework,
the GDSC is moved to HW control mode as part of GDSC enable callback and
venus driver is writing to its POWER_CONTROL register to keep the GDSC ON
from SW whereever required. But the POWER_CONTROL register addresses are
not constant and can vary across the variants.

Also as per the HW recommendation, the GDSC mode switching needs to be
controlled from respective GDSC register and this is a uniform approach
across all the targets. Hence use dev_pm_genpd_set_hwmode() API which
controls GDSC mode switching using its respective GDSC register.

If only the clock patch or the venus driver patch is merged, the venus
driver will not work properly. Although it does not affect other system
functions, it is still recommended to wait until both the clock patch
and the venus driver patch are reviewed and passed, and then merge them
into the same release by their respective maintainers.

Validated this series on QCS615 and SC7180.

Changes in v3:
- 1. Update commit message.
- 2. Add a patch to clean up the dead code for the venus driver.
- 3. Remove vcodec_control_v4() function.
- 4. Directly call dev_pm_genpd_set_hwmode() without vcodec_control_v4().
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241223-switch_gdsc_mode-v2-0-eb5c96aee662@quicinc.com

Changes in v2:
- 1. Add the HW_CTRL_TRIGGER flag for the targets SM7150/SM8150 and SM8450
video GDSCs supporting movement between HW and SW mode of the GDSC.
(Suggested by Dmitry Baryshkov)
- 2. There is a dependency of the clock driver introducing the new flag
and the video driver adapting to this new API. Missing either the clock
and video driver could potentially break the video driver.
