[PATCH v2 00/45] Introduce power-off+restart call chain API

Problem
-------
SoC devices require power-off call chaining functionality from kernel.
We have a widely used restart chaining provided by restart notifier API,
but nothing for power-off.
Solution
--------
Introduce new API that provides both restart and power-off call chains.
Why combine restart with power-off? Because drivers often do both.
More practical to have API that provides both under the same roof.
The new API is designed with simplicity and extensibility in mind.
It's built upon the existing restart and reboot APIs. The simplicity
is in new helper functions that are convenient for drivers. The
extensibility is in the design that doesn't hardcode callback
arguments, making easy to add new parameters and remove old.
This is a third attempt to introduce the new API. First was made by
Guenter Roeck back in 2014, second was made by Thierry Reding in 2017.
In fact the work didn't stop and recently arm_pm_restart() was removed
from v5.14 kernel, which was a part of preparatory work started by
Guenter Roeck. I took into account experience and ideas from the
previous attempts, extended and polished them.
Adoption plan
-------------
This patchset introduces the new API. It also converts multiple drivers
and arch code to the new API to demonstrate how it all looks in practice.
The plan is:
1. Merge new API (patches 1-8). This API will co-exist with the old APIs.
2. Convert arch code to do_kernel_power_off() (patches 9-21).
3. Convert drivers and platform code to the new API.
4. Remove obsolete pm_power_off and pm_power_off_prepare variables.
5. Make restart-notifier API private to kernel/reboot.c once no users left.
Results
-------
1. Devices can be powered off properly.
2. Global variables are removed from drivers.
3. Global pm_power_off and pm_power_off_prepare callback variables are
removed once all users are converted to the new API. The latter callback
is removed by patch #25 of this series.
4. Ambiguous call chain ordering is prohibited. See patch #5 which adds
verification of restart handlers priorities, ensuring that they are unique.
Changelog:
v2: - Replaced standalone power-off call chain demo-API with the combined
power-off+restart API because this is what drivers want. It's a more
comprehensive solution.
- Converted multiple drivers and arch code to the new API. Suggested by
Andy Shevchenko. I skimmed through the rest of drivers, verifying that
new API suits them. The rest of the drivers will be converted once we
will settle on the new API, otherwise will be too many patches here.
- v2 API doesn't expose notifier to users and require handlers to
have unique priority. Suggested by Guenter Roeck.
- v2 API has power-off chaining disabled by default and require
drivers to explicitly opt-in to the chaining. This preserves old
behaviour for existing drivers once they are converted to the new
API.
