[PATCH v4 00/20] nova-core: run FWSEC-FRTS to perform first stage of GSP initialization

Hi everyone,
New revision addressing the feedback received on v3, and then some.
Notably the `register!` macro gets a few new features that add clarity
to the code (like register aliases), and the `vbios` module has also
been reworked according to feedback. We also now have a HAL in the fb
module.
The newly-introduced `num` module provides some very common operations
(i.e. `align_down`, `align_up`), so it might make sense to consider
merging it early.
As previously, this series only successfully probes Ampere GPUs, but
support for other generations is on the way.
Upon successful probe, the driver will display the range of the WPR2
region constructed by FWSEC-FRTS with debug priority:
[ 95.436000] NovaCore 0000:01:00.0: WPR2: 0xffc00000-0xffce0000
[ 95.436002] NovaCore 0000:01:00.0: GPU instance built
This series is based on nova-next with no other dependencies.
There are bits of documentation still missing, these are addressed by
Joel in his own documentation patch series [1]. I'll also double-check
and send follow-up patches if anything is still missing after that.

Changes in v4:
- Improve documentation of falcon security modes (thanks Joel!)
- Add the definition of the size of CoherentAllocation as one of its
invariants.
- Better document GFW boot progress, registers and use wait_on() helper,
and move it to `gfw` module instead of `devinit`.
- Add missing TODOs for workarounds waiting to be replaced by in-flight
R4L features.
- Register macro: add the offset of the register as a type constant, and
allow register aliases for registers which can be interpreted
differently depending on context.
- Rework the `num` module using only macros (to allow use of overflowing
ops), and add align_down() and fls() ops.
- Add a proper HAL to the `fb` module.
- Move HAL builders to impl blocks of Chipset.
- Add proper types and traits for signatures.
- Proactively split FalconFirmware into distinct traits to ease
management of v2 vs v3 FWSEC headers that will be needed for Turing
support.
- Link to v3:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250507-nova-frts-v3-0-fcb02749754d@nvidia.com
Changes in v3:
- Rebased on top of latest nova-next.
- Use the new Devres::access() and remove the now unneeded with_bar!()
macro.
- Dropped `rust: devres: allow to borrow a reference to the resource's
Device` as it is not needed anymore.
- Fixed more erroneous uses of `ERANGE` error.
- Optimized alignment computations of the FB layout a bit.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250501-nova-frts-v2-0-b4a137175337@nvidia.com
Changes in v2:
- Rebased on latest nova-next.
- Fixed all clippy warnings.
- Added `count` and `size` methods to `CoherentAllocation`.
- Added method to obtain a reference to the `Device` from a `Devres`
(this is super convenient).
- Split `DmaObject` into its own patch and added `Deref` implementation.
- Squashed field names from [3] into "extract FWSEC from BIOS".
- Fixed erroneous use of `ERANGE` error.
- Reworked `register!()` macro towards a more intuitive syntax, moved
its helper macros into internal rules to avoid polluting the macro
namespace.
- Renamed all registers to capital snake case to better match OpenRM.
- Removed declarations for registers that are not used yet.
- Added more documentation for items not covered by Joel's documentation
patches.
- Removed timer device and replaced it with a helper function using
`Ktime`. This also made [4] unneeded so it is dropped.
- Unregister the sysmem flush page upon device destruction.
- ... probably more that I forgot. >_<
