Series drm/panfrost: Add support for mt8183 GPU | expand

Commit Message

GPUs with more than a single regulator (e.g. G72 on MT8183) will
require platform-specific handling for devfreq, for 2 reasons:
 1. The opp core (drivers/opp/core.c:_generic_set_opp_regulator)
    does not support multiple regulators, so we'll need custom
    handlers.
 2. Generally, platforms with 2 regulators have platform-specific
    constraints on how the voltages should be set (e.g.
    minimum/maximum voltage difference between them), so we
    should not just create generic handlers that simply
    change the voltages without taking care of those constraints.

Disable devfreq for now on those GPUs.

(no changes since v9)

Changes in v9:
 - Explain why devfreq needs to be disabled for GPUs with >1
   regulators.

Changes in v8:
 - Use DRM_DEV_INFO instead of ERROR

Changes in v7:
 - Fix GPU ID in commit message

Changes in v6:
 - New change
