[RFC PATCH 0/9] Add support for QCOM Core Power Reduction

[Niklas Cassel]

This is a first RFC for Core Power Reduction (CPR), a form of
Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS), found on certain Qualcomm SoCs.

Since this is simply an RFC, things like MAINTAINERS hasn't
been updated yet.

CPR is a technology that reduces core power on a CPU or on other device.
It reads voltage settings from efuses (that have been written in production),
it uses these voltage settings as initial values, for each OPP.

After moving to a certain OPP, CPR monitors dynamic factors such as
temperature, etc. and adjusts the voltage for that frequency accordingly
to save power and meet silicon characteristic requirements.

This driver is based on an RFC by Stephen Boyd[1], which in turn is
based on work by others on codeaurora.org[2].
