[RFC v3 0/3] Mediatek MT8173 CMDQ support

Hi,

This is Mediatek MT8173 Command Queue(CMDQ) driver. The CMDQ is used
to help read/write registers with critical time limitation, such as
updating display configuration during the vblank. It controls Global
Command Engine (GCE) hardware to achieve this requirement.

These patches have a build dependency on top of v4.5-rc1.

Changes since v2:
 - use cmdq instead of cqctx
 - document cmdq_code
 - use cmdq thread base instead of thread id, so remove thread id
 - remove buffer pool and let linux manage memory
 - remove task_free_list
 - merge cmdq_task_exec_async_impl into cmdq_task_exec_async
 - use list_for_each_entry_safe instead of list_for_each_safe
 - merge cmdq_dev_init into cmdq_probe
 - use cmdq record(rec) instead of cmdq handle
 - use cmdq command instead of cmdq desc
 - remove unused interfaces
 - set IRQF_TRIGGER_LOW in device tree
 - remove event array and related code since client should clear event
   before wait it
 - report status to callback function
 - remove some debug code
 - remove some protection code, e.g. suspend/resume
 - rewrite some code to shrink code size

Best regards,
HS Liao
