Pull more power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These modify the Intel RAPL driver to allow it to use an MMIO
  interface to the hardware, make the int340X thermal driver provide
  such an interface for it, add Intel Ice Lake CPU IDs to the RAPL
  driver (these changes depend on the previously merged x86 arch
  changes), update cpufreq to use the PM QoS framework for managing the
  min and max frequency limits, and add update the imx-cpufreq-dt
  cpufreq driver to support i.MX8MN.

  Specifics:

   - Add MMIO interface support to the Intel RAPL power capping driver
     and update the int340X thermal driver to provide a RAPL MMIO
     interface (Zhang Rui, Stephen Rothwell).

   - Add Intel Ice Lake CPU IDs to the RAPL driver (Zhang Rui, Rajneesh
     Bhardwaj).

   - Make cpufreq use the PM QoS framework (instead of notifiers) for
     managing the min and max frequency constraints (Viresh Kumar).

   - Add i.MX8MN support to the imx-cpufreq-dt cpufreq driver (Anson
     Huang)"

The power docs are orphaned at the documentation body.

While it could likely be moved to be inside some guide, I'm opting to just
adding it to the main index.rst, removing the :orphan: and adding the SPDX
header.

The reason is similar to what it was done for other driver-specific
subsystems: the docs there contain a mix of Kernelspace, uAPI and
admin-guide. So, better to keep them on its own directory,
while the docs there are not properly classified.

In order to allow dev_pm_qos_read_value() to read values for different
QoS requests, pass request type as a parameter to these routines.

For now, it only supports resume-latency request type but will be
extended to frequency limit (min/max) constraints later on.

<title>power: supply: add input power and voltage limit properties</title>

<id>a4496d52b3430cb3c4c16d03cdd5f4ee97ad1241</id>
<content type='text'>
For thermal management strategy you might be interested on limit the
input power for a power supply. We already have current limit but
basically what we probably want is to limit power. So, introduce the
input_power_limit property.

Although the common use case is limit the input power, in some
specific cases it is the voltage that is problematic (i.e some regulators
have different efficiencies at higher voltage resulting in more heat).
So introduce also the input_voltage_limit property.

This happens in one Chromebook and is used on the Pixel C's thermal
management strategy to effectively limit the input power to 5V 3A when
the screen is on. When the screen is on, the display, the CPU, and the GPU
all contribute more heat to the system than while the screen is off, and
we made a tradeoff to throttle the charger in order to give more of the
thermal budget to those other components.

So there's nothing fundamentally broken about the hardware that would
cause the Pixel C to malfunction if we were charging at 9V or 12V instead
of 5V when the screen is on, i.e. if userspace doesn't change this.

What would happen is that you wouldn't meet Google's skin temperature
targets on the system if the charger was allowed to run at 9V or 12V with
the screen on.

For folks hacking on Pixel Cs (which is now outside of Google's official
support window for Android) and customizing their own kernel and userspace
this would be acceptable, but we wanted to expose this feature in the
power supply properties because the feature does exist in the Emedded
Controller firmware of the Pixel C and all of Google's Chromebooks with
USB-C made since 2015 in case someone running an up to date kernel wanted
to limit the charging power for thermal or other reasons.

This patch exposes a new property, similar to input current limit, to
re-configure the maximum voltage from the external supply at runtime
based on system-level knowledge or user input.

Convert the PM documents to ReST, in order to allow them to
build with Sphinx.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines and indentation in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fix tables markups;
  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust title markups.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Whilst making an unrelated change to some Documentation, Linus sayeth:

  | Afaik, even in Britain, "whilst" is unusual and considered more
  | formal, and "while" is the common word.
  |
  | [...]
  |
  | Can we just admit that we work with computers, and we don't need to
  | use þe eald Englisc spelling of words that most of the world never
  | uses?

dictionary.com refers to the word as "Chiefly British", which is
probably an undesirable attribute for technical documentation.

Replace all occurrences under Documentation/ with "while".
