Lin Huang b9d1262bca PM / devfreq: event: support rockchip dfi controller
on rk3399 platform, there is dfi conroller can monitor
ddr load, base on this result, we can do ddr freqency
scaling.

Chanwoo Choi 0179a91387 PM / devfreq: event: Add new Exynos NoC probe driver
This patch adds NoC (Network on Chip) Probe driver which provides
the primitive values to get the performance data. The packets that the Network
on Chip (NoC) probes detects are transported over the network infrastructure.
Exynos542x bus has multiple NoC probes to provide bandwidth information about
behavior of the SoC that you can use while analyzing system performance.

Chanwoo Choi f262f28c14 PM / devfreq: event: Add devfreq_event class
This patch adds a new class in devfreq, devfreq_event, which provides
raw data (e.g., memory bus utilization, GPU utilization) for devfreq
governors.

- devfreq_event device : Provides raw data for a governor of a devfreq device
- devfreq device       : Monitors device state and changes frequency/voltage
			of the device using the raw data from its
			devfreq_event device.

A devfreq device dertermines performance states (normally the frequency
and the voltage vlues) based on the results its designtated devfreq governor:
e.g., ondemand, performance, powersave.

In order to give such results required by a devfreq device, the devfreq
governor requires data that indicates the performance requirement given
to the devfreq device. The conventional (previous) implementatino of
devfreq subsystem requires a devfreq device driver to implement its own
mechanism to acquire performance requirement for its governor. However,
there had been issues with such requirements:

1. Although performance requirement of such devices is usually acquired
 from common devices (PMU/PPMU), we do not have any abstract structure to
 represent them properly.
2. Such performance requirement devices (PMU/PPMU) are actual hardware
 pieces that may be represented by Device Tree directly while devfreq device
 itself is a virtual entity that are not considered to be represented by
 Device Tree according to Device Tree folks.

In order to address such issues, a devferq_event device (represented by
this patch) provides a template for device drivers representing
performance monitoring unit, which gives the basic or raw data for
preformance requirement, which in turn, is required by devfreq governors.

The following description explains the feature of two kind of devfreq class:
- devfreq class (existing)
 : devfreq consumer device use raw data from devfreq_event device for
   determining proper current system state and change voltage/frequency
   dynamically using various governors.

- devfreq_event class (new)
 : Provide measured raw data to devfreq device for governor
