   powercap: dtpm: Add RK3588 hierarchy (2026-11-09 17:33:40 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Powercap controllers may expose trees of power zones, such as packages,
clusters and CPUs. This series adds generic helpers to duplicate a static
hierarchy description, create its zones through backend callbacks, and
destroy them in reverse order. Parents must precede their children in the
node array; the helpers validate that ordering rather than sorting nodes.

Drivers supporting multiple platforms can place each platform's hierarchy
description and node array in initdata. powercap_hierarchy_dup() creates a
working copy of the selected hierarchy and rebases its parent pointers.
All original descriptions, including those for unused platforms, can then
be reclaimed automatically with init memory. Names and backend-private
data are not duplicated and must remain valid for the working hierarchy.

The controller supplies creation and destruction callbacks to connect the
generic hierarchy traversal to its backend. The creation callback receives
the control type, node name, private data and parent zone, registers the
zone with its operations and constraints, and returns it to the helper.
The destruction callback unregisters it during rollback or teardown.

The API supports both fatal creation errors, which roll back previously
created zones, and optional nodes: a NULL callback result skips a node and
its descendants while allowing independent branches to be created.

The helpers were motivated by the SPEL work and also let DTPM share the
same hierarchy infrastructure:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260702-qcom_spel_driver_upstream-v3-0-434d50f0c5b0@oss.qualcomm.com/

A kselftest exercises static and duplicated hierarchies, skipped branches,
reuse after partial destruction, and rejection of repeated creation. Its
userspace script checks the 16 exported zones and selected attribute
values, then removes the module with a sysfs attribute descriptor open.

DTPM is converted to the generic helpers while preserving best-effort
creation when individual backends are unavailable. The CPU backend finds
an online sibling when a hierarchy's representative CPU is offline.
Entirely offline policies remain unavailable during initialization.

The RK3399 description is reduced to one CPU entry per cpufreq policy.
The old backend already suppressed duplicate registration; the extra
entries were redundant descriptions, not additional registered zones.
Finally, a shared Rockchip virtual descriptor and an RK3588 CPU hierarchy
are added. RK3588's three frequency domains are represented by cpu at 0,
cpu at 400 and cpu at 600 below a virtual package node; no GPU zone is added
for RK3588 in this series.
