[PATCH v4 0/3] Add SiFive power provider driver

This patchset introduces the SiFive power provider driver, which sets up a
generic power domain (genpd) provider to coordinate with the RISC-V SBI
CPU idle driver.

To enable this coordination, split the power domain initialization out
of the RISC-V SBI CPU idle driver. This allows coordination between
power domain management and CPU idle states on SiFive platforms.

Changes in v4:
- Split the power domain initialization out of the RISC-V SBI CPU idle
  driver in PATCH 1
- Refine the commit messages of PATCH 1 and PATCH 3
- Rename cpuidle-sifive-dmc-pd.c to cpuidle-sifive-dmc-domain.c
- Rename SIFIVE_DMC_PD_CPUIDLE to CONFIG_SIFIVE_DMC_CPUIDLE_DOMAIN

Changes in v3:
- Update the explanation for the absence of the SoC-specific compatible
  string.
- Drop the smc3/tmc3/cmc3 bindings.
- Separate the genpd init and the idle driver init. The genpd remains
  functional even when the idle state is absent.
- Address the warning from the kernel test robot

Changes in v2:
- Add the driver for SiFive TMC, CMC and SMC
- Drop the `sifive,feature-level` property
