platform/x86: intel_pmc_ipc: Convert to MFD
This driver only creates a bunch of platform devices sharing resources belonging to the PMC device. This is pretty much what MFD subsystem is for so move the driver there, renaming it to intel_pmc_bxt.c which should be more clear what it is. MFD subsystem provides nice helper APIs for subdevice creation so convert the driver to use those. Unfortunately the ACPI device includes separate resources for most of the subdevices so we cannot simply call mfd_add_devices() to create all of them but instead we need to call it separately for each device. The new MFD driver continues to expose two sysfs attributes that allow userspace to send IPC commands to the PMC/SCU to avoid breaking any existing applications that may use these. Generally this is bad idea so document this in the ABI documentation.
