    There are 2 problems with the old iosf PMIC I2C bus arbritration code which
    need to be addressed:
    
    1. The lockdep code complains about a possible deadlock in the
    iosf_mbi_[un]block_punit_i2c_access code:

    [    6.713229]   lock(iosf_mbi_punit_mutex);
    [    6.713239]                                lock(iosf_mbi_block_punit_i2c_access_count_mutex);
    [    6.713253]                                lock(iosf_mbi_punit_mutex);
    [    6.713265]   lock(iosf_mbi_block_punit_i2c_access_count_mutex);
    [    6.713276]
                    *** DEADLOCK ***
    
    In practice can never happen because only the first caller which
    increments iosf_mbi_block_punit_i2c_access_count will also take
    iosf_mbi_punit_mutex, that is the whole purpose of the counter, which
    itself is protected by iosf_mbi_block_punit_i2c_access_count_mutex.
    
    But there is no way to tell the lockdep code about this and we really
    want to be able to run a kernel with lockdep enabled without these
    warnings being triggered.
    
    2. The lockdep warning also points out another real problem, if 2 threads
    both are in a block of code protected by iosf_mbi_block_punit_i2c_access
    and the first thread to acquire the block exits before the second thread
    then the second thread will call mutex_unlock on iosf_mbi_punit_mutex,
    but it is not the thread which took the mutex and unlocking by another
    thread is not allowed.
    
    Fix this by getting rid of the notion of holding a mutex for the entire
    duration of the PMIC accesses, be it either from the PUnit side, or from an
    in kernel I2C driver. In general holding a mutex after exiting a function
    is a bad idea and the above problems show this case is no different.
    
    Instead 2 counters are now used, one for PMIC accesses from the PUnit
    and one for accesses from in kernel I2C code. When access is requested
    now the code will wait (using a waitqueue) for the counter of the other
    type of access to reach 0 and on release, if the counter reaches 0 the
    wakequeue is woken.
    
    Note that the counter approach is necessary to allow nested calls.
    The main reason for this is so that a series of i2c transfers can be done
    with the punit blocked from accessing the bus the whole time. This is
    necessary to be able to safely read/modify/write a PMIC register without
    racing with the PUNIT doing the same thing.
    
    Allowing nested iosf_mbi_block_punit_i2c_access() calls also is desirable
    from a performance pov since the whole dance necessary to block the PUnit
    from accessing the PMIC I2C bus is somewhat expensive.
