ACPI / CPPC: support for batching CPPC requests
CPPC defined in section 8.4.7 of ACPI 6.0 specification suggests "To amortize the cost of PCC transactions, OSPM should read or write all PCC registers via a single read or write command when possible" This patch enables opportunistic batching of frequency transition requests whenever the request happen to overlap in time. Currently the access to pcc is serialized by a spin lock which does not scale well as we increase the number of cores in the system. This patch improves the scalability by allowing the differnt CPU cores to update PCC subspace in parallel and by batching requests which will reduce the certain types of operation(checking command completion bit, ringing doorbell) by a significant margin. Profiling shows significant improvement in the overall effeciency to service freq. transition requests. With this patch we observe close to 30% of the frequency transition requests being batched with other requests while running apache bench on a ARM platform with 6 independent domains(or sets of related cpus).

+ * currently executing in Phase-I
+ * 2. Once we start Phase-II we want to avoid all other CPUs from
+ * entering Phase-I.
+ * 3. We want only one CPU among all those who went through Phase-I
+ * to run phase-II
+ *
+ * If write_trylock fails to get the lock and doesn't transfer the
+ * PCC ownership to the platform, then one of the following will be TRUE
+ * 1. There is at-least one CPU in Phase-I which will later execute
+ * write_trylock, so the CPUs in Phase-I will be responsible for
+ * executing the Phase-II.
+ * 2. Some other CPU has beaten this CPU to successfully execute the
+ * write_trylock and has already acquired the write_lock. We know for a
+ * fact it(other CPU acquiring the write_lock) couldn't have happened
+ * before this CPU's Phase-I as we held the read_lock.
+ * 3. Some other CPU executing pcc CMD_READ has stolen the
+ * down_write, in which case, send_pcc_cmd will check for pending
+ * CMD_WRITE commands by checking the pending_pcc_write_cmd.
+ * So this CPU can be certain that its request will be delivered
+ * So in all cases, this CPU knows that its request will be delivered

+ * pending_pcc_write_cmd to take care of the following scenario
+ * The thread running this code could be scheduled out between
+ * Phase-I and Phase-II. Before it is scheduled back on, another CPU
+ * could have delivered the request to Platform by triggering the
+ * doorbell and transferred the ownership of PCC to platform. So this
+ * avoids triggering an unnecessary doorbell and more importantly before
+ * triggering the doorbell it makes sure that the PCC channel ownership
+ * is still with OSPM.
+ * pending_pcc_write_cmd can also be cleared by a different CPU, if
+ * there was a pcc CMD_READ waiting on down_write and it steals the lock
