    OPP: Add dev_pm_opp_{set|put}_genpd_virt_dev() helper · 4f018bc0
    Viresh Kumar authored
    Multiple generic power domains for a consumer device are supported with
    the help of virtual devices, which are created for each consumer device
    - genpd pair. These are the device structures which are attached to the
    power domain and are required by the OPP core to set the performance
    state of the genpd.
    
    The helpers added by this commit are required to be called once for each
    of these virtual devices. These are required only if multiple domains
    are available for a device, otherwise the actual device structure will
    be used instead by the OPP core.
    
    The new helpers also support the complex cases where the consumer device
    wouldn't always require all the domains. For example, a camera may
    require only one power domain during normal operations but two during
    high resolution operations. The consumer driver can call
    dev_pm_opp_put_genpd_virt_dev(high_resolution_genpd_virt_dev) if it is
    currently operating in the normal mode and doesn't have any performance
    requirements from the genpd which manages high resolution power
    requirements. The consumer driver can later call
    dev_pm_opp_set_genpd_virt_dev(high_resolution_genpd_virt_dev) once it
    switches back to the high resolution mode.
    
    The new helpers differ from other OPP set/put helpers as the new ones
    can be called with OPPs initialized for the table as we may need to call
    them on the fly because of the complex case explained above. For this
    reason it is possible that the genpd virt_dev structure may be used in
    parallel while the new helpers are running and a new mutex is added to
    protect against that. We didn't use the existing opp_table->lock mutex
    as that is widely used in the OPP core and we will need this lock in the
    dev_pm_opp_set_rate() helper while changing OPP and we need to make sure
    there is not much contention while doing that as that's the hotpath.
