[PATCH v4 0/6] Add support for the System Power Management Interface (SPMI)

The System Power Management Interface (SPMI) is a high-speed,
low-latency, bi-directional, two-wire serial bus suitable for real-time
control of voltage and frequency scaled multi-core application
processors and its power management of auxiliary components. SPMI
obsoletes a number of legacy, custom point-to-point interfaces and
provides a low pin count, high-speed control bus for up to 4 Master and
16 Slave devices.

SPMI is specified by the MIPI (Mobile Industry Process Interface)
Alliance [1].

This patchset is intended both to provide a core implementation of SPMI and
also to provide a controller driver implementation.
  - Patches 1-2 implement the SPMI core functionality and provide basic
    DT binding documentation
  - Patches 3-5 provide an implementation of an SPMI controller, the
    Qualcomm SPMI PMIC Arbiter", currently used on the 8x74 series SoCs.
  - Patch 6 rounds out regmap support for SPMI

Changes from v3[2]:
  - Dropped the pm8x41 PMIC driver and pm8xxx-rtc changes as part of this patchset.
    I'll be working with Stephen Boyd to see if we can't adapt his pm8xxx
    patches[3] to suit the needs of the pm8x41.
  - Rebased on v3.13-rc2
  - Move to simple_ida_* for controller ID allocation
  - Addressed documentation fixes and nits
  - Provide pm_runtime implementation, which leverages SPMI's SLEEP and WAKEUP
    commands
  - Address spmi_controller object lifetime issues

Changes from v2[4]:
  - Dropped RFC.
  - Add basic regmap support at Mark Brown's suggestion
  - Drop debugfs interface.  Debugging SPMI accesses can happen via the regmap
    debugfs interface if necessary.
  - Add second address-cell in SPMI generic device tree binding, encoding the
    address type (suggestion by Stephen Warren)
  - Implement interrupt handling functionality within the PMIC Arbiter driver
  - Provide basic MFD driver for the PMIC8x41 PMICs, demonstrating SPMI regmap
    client use
  - Adapt existing pm8xxx-rtc driver to work as a child of the PM8x41 mfd device

Changes from v1[5]:
  - Adopted patch (1/5) to #define for_each_available_node() shim
    in the !CONFIG_OF case
  - Moved device tree logic out of drivers/of and into spmi.c core (this
    mirrors what SPI is doing, and what i2c will soon be doing)
  - Move of_spmi_add_devices() call into spmi_device_add(), so drivers don't
    have to call it explicitly
  - Unconditionally build in debugfs code (rely on the underlying
    CONFIG_DEBUG_FS switch to throw unused code away)
  - Change pr_* print functions to their dev_* equivalents
  - Fix copy_{to,from}_user error handling
  - Renamed "board_lock" to "ctrl_idr_lock" to better describe it's purpose
  - Rework device object lifetime management
  - Rename PMIC arb binding document, add description of PMIC arb
  - Add generic SPMI device tree bindings
