Add bindings for the MediaTek Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling
Resource Collector (DVFSRC), a hardware module used to collect all the
requests from both software and the various remote processors embedded
into the SoC and decide about a minimum operating voltage and a minimum
DRAM frequency to fulfill those requests in an effort to provide the
best achievable performance per watt.

This hardware IP is capable of transparently performing direct register
R/W on all of the DVFSRC-controlled regulators and SoC bandwidth knobs.

Why is there no enforcement of what a child could be here?

"dvfsrc" looks like something my (imaginary given allergies) cat would
produce from sitting on my keyboard. Could you use full words for the
node name and make it something that attempts to be generic please?

Seems like you know exactly what the children are: regulators and an
interconnect? What am I missing?

I wasn't sure whether that would've been a good idea, given that there will
be more possible children in the future - as in - more drivers that need the
DVFSRC communication.

But anyway yes, for now, it's just the regulator and interconnect drivers.

I'm not entirely sure that I can find a generic name for this... I wonder if
"remoteproc" could work - as this is a remote processor (a MCU, actually).

To give you context, this doesn't need firmware to be loaded, and does not have
any remoteproc driver.

Because then, I don't think that "performance-controller" would be correct,
even though I have this N.2 choice... ideas?

Angelo

If there's no additional hardware, just additional drivers wanting to
use this, there's no need to modify the dt, you just call
platform_device_register() to spin up the new drivers.

We can always free it up whenever new requirements appear.

I dunno, I don't think having to load firmware to something or interact
with a remoteproc driver in linux changes what the hardware actually is.

My lot call this type of thing a "system controller" in our specs. Any of
firmware, remote-processor, performance-controller all seem valid to me.
