ARM: SoC driver updates for v5.9
A couple of subsystems have their own subsystem maintainers but choose
to have the code merged through the soc tree as upstream, as the code
tends to be used across multiple SoCs or has SoC specific drivers itself:
- memory controllers:
Krzysztof Kozlowski takes ownership of the drivers/memory
subsystem and its drivers, starting out with a set of cleanup
patches.
A larger driver for the Tegra memory controller that was accidentally
missed for v5.8 is now added.
- reset controllers:
Only minor updates to drivers/reset this time
- firmware:
The "turris mox" firmware driver gains support for signed firmware blobs
The tegra firmware driver gets extended to export some debug information
Various updates to i.MX firmware drivers, mostly cosmetic
- ARM SCMI/SCPI:
A new mechanism for platform notifications is added, among a number
of minor changes.
- optee:
Probing of the TEE bus is rewritten to better support detection of
devices that depend on the tee-supplicant user space.
A new firmware based trusted platform module (fTPM) driver is added
based on OP-TEE
- SoC attributes:
A new driver is added to provide a generic soc_device for identifying
a machine through the SMCCC ARCH_SOC_ID firmware interface rather than
by probing SoC family specific registers.
The series also contains some cleanups to the common soc_device code.
There are also a number of updates to SoC specific drivers,
the main ones are:
- Mediatek cmdq driver gains a few in-kernel interfaces
- Minor updates to Qualcomm RPMh, socinfo, rpm drivers, mostly adding
support for additional SoC variants
- The Qualcomm GENI core code gains interconnect path voting and
performance level support, and integrating this into a number of
device drivers.
- A new driver for Samsung Exynos5800 voltage coupler for
- Renesas RZ/G2H (R8A774E1) SoC support gets added to a couple of SoC
specific device drivers
- Updates to the TI K3 Ring Accelerator driver
