Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 00/14] Add PPE driver for Qualcomm IPQ9574 SoC

The PPE (packet process engine) hardware block is available in Qualcomm
IPQ chipsets that support PPE architecture, such as IPQ9574 and IPQ5332.
The PPE in the IPQ9574 SoC includes six ethernet ports (6 GMAC and 6
XGMAC), which are used to connect with external PHY devices by PCS. The
PPE also includes packet processing offload capabilities for various
networking functions such as route and bridge flows, VLANs, different
tunnel protocols and VPN. It also includes an L2 switch function for
bridging packets among the 6 ethernet ports and the CPU port. The CPU
port enables packet transfer between the ethernet ports and the ARM
cores in the SoC, using the ethernet DMA.

This patch series is the first part of a three part series that will
together enable Ethernet function for IPQ9574 SoC. While support is
initially being added for IPQ9574 SoC, the driver will be easily
extendable to enable Ethernet support for other IPQ SoC such as IPQ5332.
The driver can also be extended later for adding support for L2/L3
network offload features that the PPE can support. The functionality
to be enabled by each of the three series (to be posted sequentially)
is as below:

Part 1: The PPE patch series (this series), which enables the platform
driver, probe and initialization/configuration of different PPE hardware
blocks.

Part 2: The PPE MAC patch series, which enables the phylink operations
for the PPE ethernet ports.

Part 3: The PPE EDMA patch series, which enables the Rx/Tx Ethernet DMA
and netdevice driver for the 6 PPE ethernet ports.

A more detailed description of the functions enabled by part 1 is below:
1. Initialize PPE device hardware functions such as buffer management,
   queue management, scheduler and clocks in order to bring up PPE
   device.
2. Enable platform driver and probe functions
3. Register debugfs file to provide access to various PPE packet
   counters. These statistics are recorded by the various hardware
   process counters, such as port RX/TX, CPU code and hardware queue
   counters.
4. A detailed introduction of PPE along with the PPE hardware diagram
   in the first two patches (dt-bindings and documentation).

Below is a reference to an earlier RFC discussion with the community
about enabling ethernet driver support for Qualcomm IPQ9574 SoC. This
writeup can help provide a higher level architectural view of various
other drivers that support the PPE such as clock and PCS drivers.

Changes in v2:
- Represent the PPE hardware hierarchy in dtbindings, add PPE hardware diagram.
- Remove all SoC specific hardware properties from dtbindings since driver
  maintains them.
- Move out the PCS (UNIPHY) handling into a separate PCS driver posted
  separately at below.
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240110114033.32575-1-quic_luoj@quicinc.com/
- Move out the PPE MAC patches into a separate series to limit patch count to
  15 or less. (PPE MAC patches will be posted sequentially after this series).
- Rename the hardware initialization related files from ppe_ops.c[h] to
  ppe_config.c[h]
- Improve PPE driver documentation and diagram.
- Fix dtbinding check errors.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240110114033.32575-1-quic_luoj@quicinc.com
