nvgpu: gpu: arbiter for vf switch management
JIRA DNVGPU-143
The arbiter is charged with selecting the proper
frequencies when multiple applications submit
simultaneously clock change requests
On the current implementation, the arbiter guarantees
that the selected frequency will be always higher
or equal to the request, as long as the request is
in range.
The current code is not yet realtime friendly, as
requests are not pre-allocated.
Summary of changes:
(1) pstate/vf switch no longer selects boot frequency
(2) changed mclk code change to accept input freq
(3) added arbiter
(4) now a single session can submit concurrent requests
the last request is the one that applies for that
session
(5) modified locking mechanism to reduce lock contention
(6) Added callback to notify the arbiter that the VF
table has changed and is no longer valid (PMU/Thermals
must call this when VF table is invalid)
(7) changed internal API to work with MHz
(8) added debugfs for stats
