This series reshuffles things around, moving the management of SMD RPM bus clocks to the interconnect framework where they belong. This helps us solve a couple of issues: 1. We can work towards unused clk cleanup of RPMCC without worrying about it killing some NoC bus, resulting in the SoC dying. Deasserting actually unused RPM clocks (among other things) will let us achieve "true SoC-wide power collapse states", also known as VDD_LOW and VDD_MIN. 2. We no longer have to keep tons of quirky bus clock ifs in the icc driver. You either have a RPM clock and call "rpm set rate" or you have a single non-RPM clock (like AHB_CLK_SRC) or you don't have any. 3. There's less overhead - instead of going through layers and layers of the CCF, ratesetting comes down to calling max() and sending a single RPM message. ICC is very very dynamic so that's a big plus. The clocks still need to be vaguely described in the clk-smd-rpm driver, as it gives them an initial kickoff, before actually telling RPM to enable DVFS scaling. After RPM receives that command, all clocks that have not been assigned a rate are considered unused and are shut down in hardware, leading to the same issue as described in point 1. We can consider marking them __initconst in the future, but this series is very fat even without that.. Apart from that, it squashes a couple of bugs that really need fixing.. The series is merged through a topic branch to manage the dependencies between interconnect, Qualcomm clocks and Qualcomm SoC.
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
