Cristian Marussi a690b7e6e7 firmware: arm_scmi: Add configurable polling mode for transports
SCMI communications along TX channels can optionally be provided of a
completion interrupt; when such interrupt is not available, command
transactions should rely on polling, where the SCMI core takes care to
repeatedly evaluate the transport-specific .poll_done() function, if
available, to determine if and when a request was fully completed or
timed out.

Such mechanism is already present and working on a single transfer base:
SCMI protocols can indeed enable hdr.poll_completion on specific commands
ahead of each transfer and cause that transaction to be handled with
polling.

Introduce a couple of flags to be able to enforce such polling behaviour
globally at will:

 - scmi_desc.force_polling: to statically switch the whole transport to
   polling mode.

 - scmi_chan_info.no_completion_irq: to switch a single channel dynamically
   to polling mode if, at runtime, is determined that no completion
   interrupt was available for such channel.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
