[PATCH v2 0/3] Add support for Tegra Activity Monitor

Hello,

in this v2 I have made the driver use devfreq. It works just as fine as the
previous revision, but it's almost 200 lines more of code for not that much
gain.

Though I don't see much point in using devfreq, I think it's probably better
than an ad-hoc driver because in the future I hope that devfreq will gain
functionality that will be of use (PM_QOS_MEMORY_BANDWIDTH support, for
example).

These patches implement support for setting the rate of the EMC clock based on
stats collected from the ACTMON, a piece of hw in the Tegra124 that counts
memory accesses (among others).

It depends on the following in-flight patches:

* EMC driver: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.devicetree/99304
* CPUFreq driver: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1812962

I have pushed a branch here for testing:
