    OMAP: PM constraints: add omap_pm_set_min_clk_rate() · fb8ce14c
    Paul Walmsley 提交于
    Add omap_pm_set_min_clk_rate().  This constraint is meant for use by
    device drivers to translate a certain device-specific performance
    constraint (e.g., "minimum polygons per second") to a clock rate for
    the driver's device, given the driver's intimate knowledge of the
    device hardware (e.g., device type, device hardware revision, firmware
    revision, etc.)  From a general PM core perspective, clock rate is
    probably the closest general analog to "performance" that is
    available, but the exact mapping from a use-case-specific performance
    constraint to clock rate must be done by the driver.  Drivers intended for
    upstream merging shouldn't hardcode specific clock rates in their code
    without basing those rates on some performance criteria requested through
    the driver's subsystem (ideally, from userspace).
    
    Imre Deak <imre.deak@nokia.com> described the need and use-case for
    this constraint, and discussed the implementation - thanks, Imre.
