Change the nx-842 common driver to wait for loading of both platform drivers, and fail loading if the platform driver pointer is not set. Add an independent platform driver pointer, that the platform drivers set if they find they are able to load (i.e. if they find their platform devicetree node(s)). The problem is currently, the main nx-842 driver will stay loaded even if there is no platform driver and thus no possible way it can do any compression or decompression. This allows the crypto 842-nx driver to load even if it won't actually work. For crypto compression users (e.g. zswap) that expect an available crypto compression driver to actually work, this is bad. This patch fixes that, so the 842-nx crypto compression driver won't load if it doesn't have the driver and hardware available to perform the compression.

Add driver for NX-842 hardware on the PowerNV platform. This allows the use of the 842 compression hardware coprocessor on the PowerNV platform. Signed-off-by: NDan Streetman <ddstreet@ieee.org> Signed-off-by: NHerbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

Add "constraints" for the NX-842 driver. The constraints are used to indicate what the current NX-842 platform driver is capable of. The constraints tell the NX-842 user what alignment, min and max length, and length multiple each provided buffers should conform to. These are required because the 842 hardware requires buffers to meet specific constraints that vary based on platform - for example, the pSeries max length is much lower than the PowerNV max length.

Add NX-842 frontend that allows using either the pSeries platform or PowerNV platform driver (to be added by later patch) for the NX-842 hardware. Update the MAINTAINERS file to include the new filenames. Update Kconfig files to clarify titles and descriptions, and correct dependencies.
