video: tegra: gpu: provide generic ops interface
This patch adds an interface for the gk20a driver to have generic ops which are implemented by a chip specific HAL layer. The HAL layer is provided by the gpu_ops struct which defines function pointers for chip specific oeprations. This is necessary for supporting multiple chips with the same code base and minimal per chip hacking. Also, since much code is common except in the HW headers that are needed, the LTC common code is compiled by first including the necessary chip specific header(s) and then including the ltc common code file. This allows for easy updating of functions that are only different between chips as a result of register offset and field changes whereas the HAL provides the mechanism for functions that have actual semantic changes.
