This initial version supports the NPU as shipped in the RK3588 SoC and
described in the first part of its TRM, in Chapter 36.
This NPU contains 3 independent cores that the driver can submit jobs
to.
This commit adds just hardware initialization and power management.
v2:
- Split cores and IOMMUs as independent devices (Sebastian Reichel)
- Add some documentation (Jeffrey Hugo)
- Be more explicit in the Kconfig documentation (Jeffrey Hugo)
- Remove resets, as these haven't been found useful so far (Zenghui Yu)
- Repack structs (Jeffrey Hugo)
- Use DEFINE_DRM_ACCEL_FOPS (Jeffrey Hugo)
- Use devm_drm_dev_alloc (Jeffrey Hugo)
- Use probe log helper (Jeffrey Hugo)
- Introduce UABI header in a later patch (Jeffrey Hugo)
v3:
- Adapt to a split of the register block in the DT bindings (Nicolas
Frattaroli)
- Move registers header to its own commit (Thomas Zimmermann)
- Misc. cleanups (Thomas Zimmermann and Jeff Hugo)
- Make use of GPL-2.0-only for the copyright notice (Jeff Hugo)
- PM improvements (Nicolas Frattaroli)
v4:
- Use bulk clk API (Krzysztof Kozlowski)
v6:
- Remove mention to NVDLA, as the hardware is only incidentally related
(Kever Yang)
- Use calloc instead of GFP_ZERO (Jeff Hugo)
- Explicitly include linux/container_of.h (Jeff Hugo)
- pclk and npu clocks are now needed by all cores (Rob Herring)
v7:
- Assign its own IOMMU domain to each client, for isolation (Daniel
Stone and Robin Murphy)
v8:
- Kconfig: fix depends to be more explicit about Rockchip, and remove
superfluous selects (Robin Murphy)
- Use reset lines to reset the cores (Robin Murphy)
- Reference count the module
- Set dma_set_max_seg_size
- Correctly acquire a reference to the IOMMU (Robin Murphy)
- Remove notion of top core (Robin Murphy)

AMD NPU (Neural Processing Unit) is a multi-user AI inference accelerator
integrated into AMD client APU. NPU enables efficient execution of Machine
Learning applications like CNN, LLM, etc. NPU is based on AMD XDNA
Architecture. NPU is managed by amdxdna driver.

The Qualcomm Cloud AI 100 (AIC100) device is an Artificial Intelligence
accelerator PCIe card. It contains a number of components both in the
SoC and on the card which facilitate running workloads:
QSM: management processor
NSPs: workload compute units
DMA Bridge: dedicated data mover for the workloads
MHI: multiplexed communication channels
DDR: workload storage and memory
The Linux kernel driver for AIC100 is called "QAIC" and is located in the
accel subsystem.

Add an introduction section for the accel subsystem. Most of the
relevant data is in the DRM documentation, so the introduction only
presents the why of the new subsystem, how are the compute accelerators
exposed to user-space and what changes need to be done in a standard
DRM driver to register it to the new accel subsystem.
