[PATCH v4 0/4] amba/dma: pl330: add Power Management support

[Krzysztof Kozlowski]

Hi,


This is fourth version of patches adding runtime PM to the pl330
driver.

The runtime PM of pl330 driver requires interrupt safe suspend/resume
callbacks which is in conflict with current amba bus driver.
The latter also unprepares and prepares the AMBA bus clock which
is not safe for atomic context.

The patchset solves this in patch 3/4 by handling clocks in different
way if device driver set interrupt safe runtime PM.

Any comments are welcome.


Tested on boards with pl330 DMA driver:
 - Trats2 (Exynos4212)
 - Samsung Gear2-like development board (Exynos3250)


TODO/ideas:
===========
Consider renaming existing pm_runtime_irq_safe() function to keep
up with naming convention after adding pm_runtime_is_irq_safe() in
patch 1/4.
This naming:
 - pm_runtime_irq_safe() as setter,
 - pm_runtime_is_irq_safe() as getter,
is contradictory to naming of other PM runtime functions, e.g.:
 - pm_runtime_set_active() as setter,
 - pm_runtime_active() as getter.
I didn't change the naming of pm_runtime_irq_safe() because I wanted
to minimize the impact of the patches.


Changes since v3:
=================
1. Patch 1/4: Document new API in Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt
   (pointed by Alan Stern).

Changes since v2:
=================
1. Add patch 1 (PM / Runtime: Add getter for quering the IRQ safe option)
2. Add patch 2 (amba: Add helper macros for (un)preparing AMBA clock)
3. Patch 3/4: Rewrite the idea. If IRQ safe runtime PM is set then
   do not unprepare/prepare the clocks. Suggested by Russell King.
4. Patch 4/4: During system sleep unprepare the clock.

Changes since v1:
=================
1. Add patch 1 (amba: Allow AMBA drivers to use their own runtime PM).
2. Patch 2/2: Apply Michal Simek's suggestions.
3. Patch 2/2: Fix atomic context safeness in pl330_issue_pending().


Best regards,
Krzysztof Kozlowski
