[ Upstream commit fb9d62b27ab1e07d625591549c314b7d406d21df ]

The debugfs directory '/sys/kernel/debug/energy_model' is needed before
the Energy Model registration can happen. With the recent change in
debugfs subsystem it's not allowed to create this directory at early
stage (core_initcall). Thus creating this directory would fail.

Postpone the creation of the EM debug dir to later stage: fs_initcall.

It should be safe since all clients: CPUFreq drivers, Devfreq drivers
will be initialized in later stages.

The custom debug log below prints the time of creation the EM debug dir
at fs_initcall and successful registration of EMs at later stages.

[    1.505717] energy_model: creating rootdir
[    3.698307] cpu cpu0: EM: created perf domain
[    3.709022] cpu cpu1: EM: created perf domain

Fixes: 56348560d495 ("debugfs: do not attempt to create a new file before the filesystem is initalized")

The Energy Model supports power values expressed in milli-Watts or in an
'abstract scale'. Update the related comments is the code to reflect that

<title>PM: EM: Add a flag indicating units of power values in Energy Model</title>

There are different platforms and devices which might use different scale
for the power values. Kernel sub-systems might need to check if all
Energy Model (EM) devices are using the same scale. Address that issue and
store the information inside EM for each device. Thanks to that they can
be easily compared and proper action triggered.

Add support for other devices than CPUs. The registration function
does not require a valid cpumask pointer and is ready to handle new
devices. Some of the internal structures has been reorganized in order to
keep consistent view (like removing per_cpu pd pointers).

Add now function in the Energy Model framework which is going to support
new devices. This function will help in transition and make it smoother.
For now it still checks if the cpumask is a valid pointer, which will be
removed later when the new structures and infrastructure will be ready.

The Energy Model uses concept of performance domain and capacity states in
order to calculate power used by CPUs. Change naming convention from
capacity to performance state would enable wider usage in future, e.g.
upcoming support for other devices other than CPUs.

<title>PM / EM: Expose the Energy Model in debugfs</title>

<id>9cac42d0645ceb2ca8b815cee04810ec9b0d13b3</id>
<content type='text'>
The recently introduced Energy Model (EM) framework manages power cost
tables of CPUs. These tables are currently only visible from kernel
space. However, in order to debug the behaviour of subsystems that use
the EM (EAS for example), it is often required to know what the power
costs are from userspace.

For this reason, introduce under /sys/kernel/debug/energy_model a set of
directories representing the performance domains of the system. Each
performance domain contains a set of sub-directories representing the
different capacity states (cs) and their attributes, as well as a file
exposing the related CPUs.

The resulting hierarchy is as follows on Arm juno r0 for example:

    /sys/kernel/debug/energy_model
    ├── pd0
    │   ├── cpus
    │   ├── cs:450000
