[1/4] clk: Add a generic clock infrastructure

We currently have ~21 definitions of struct clk in the ARM architecture,
each defined on a per-platform basis. This makes it difficult to define
platform- (or architecture-) independent clock sources without making
assumptions about struct clk, and impossible to compile two
platforms with different struct clks into a single image.

This change is an effort to unify struct clk where possible, by defining
a common struct clk, and a set of clock operations. Different clock
implementations can set their own operations, and have a standard
interface for generic code. The callback interface is exposed to the
kernel proper, while the clock implementations only need to be seen by
the platform internals.

The interface is split into two halves:

 * struct clk, which is the generic-device-driver interface. This
   provides a set of functions which drivers may use to request
   enable/disable, query or manipulate in a hardware-independent manner.

 * struct clk_hw and struct clk_hw_ops, which is the hardware-specific
   interface. Clock drivers implement the ops, which allow the core
   clock code to implement the generic 'struct clk' API.

This allows us to share clock code among platforms, and makes it
possible to dynamically create clock devices in platform-independent
code.

Platforms can enable the generic struct clock through
CONFIG_GENERIC_CLK. In this case, the clock infrastructure consists of a
common, opaque struct clk, and a set of clock operations (defined per
type of clock):

  struct clk_hw_ops {
  	int		(*prepare)(struct clk_hw *);
  	void		(*unprepare)(struct clk_hw *);
  	int		(*enable)(struct clk_hw *);
  	void		(*disable)(struct clk_hw *);
  	unsigned long	(*recalc_rate)(struct clk_hw *);
  	int		(*set_rate)(struct clk_hw *,
  					unsigned long, unsigned long *);
  	long		(*round_rate)(struct clk_hw *, unsigned long);
  	int		(*set_parent)(struct clk_hw *, struct clk *);
  	struct clk *	(*get_parent)(struct clk_hw *);
  };

Platform clock code can register a clock through clk_register, passing a
set of operations, and a pointer to hardware-specific data:

  struct clk_hw_foo {
  	struct clk_hw clk;
  	void __iomem *enable_reg;
  };

  #define to_clk_foo(c) offsetof(c, clk_hw_foo, clk)

  static int clk_foo_enable(struct clk_hw *clk)
  {
  	struct clk_foo *foo = to_clk_foo(clk);
  	raw_writeb(foo->enable_reg, 1);
  	return 0;
  }

  struct clk_hw_ops clk_foo_ops = {
  	.enable = clk_foo_enable,
  };

And in the platform initialisation code:

  struct clk_foo my_clk_foo;

  void init_clocks(void)
  {
  	my_clk_foo.enable_reg = ioremap(...);

  	clk_register(&clk_foo_ops, &my_clk_foo, NULL);
  }

Changes from Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>.

The common clock definitions are based on a development patch from Ben
Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>.

TODO:

 * We don't keep any internal reference to the clock topology at present.
