[PATCH v4 0/7] Add dts for mt8183 GPU (and misc panfrost patches)

Hi!

Follow-up on the v3: https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/11331343/.

The main purpose of this series is to upstream the dts change and the
binding document, but I wanted to see how far I could probe the GPU, to
check that the binding is indeed correct. The rest of the patches are
RFC/work-in-progress, but I think some of them could already be picked up.

So this is tested on MT8183 with a chromeos-4.19 kernel, and a ton of
backports to get the latest panfrost driver (I should probably try on
linux-next at some point but this was the path of least resistance).

I tested it as a module as it's more challenging (originally probing would
work built-in, on boot, but not as a module, as I didn't have the power
domain changes, and all power domains are on by default during boot).

Probing logs looks like this, currently. They look sane.

Some more changes are still required to get devfreq working, and of course
I do not have a userspace driver to test this with.

I believe at least patches 1, 2, and 3 can be merged. 4 and 5 are mostly
useful in conjunction with 6 and 7 (which are not ready yet), so I'll let
maintainers decide.

Thanks!
