Pratik R. Sampat 3c14b73454 powerpc/pseries: Interface to represent PAPR firmware attributes
Adds a syscall interface to represent the energy and frequency related
PAPR attributes on the system using the new H_CALL
"H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO".

H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL was previously responsible for exporting this
information in the lparcfg, however the H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL
will be deprecated P10 onwards.

The H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO H_CALL is of the following call format:
hcall(
  uint64 H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO,  // Get energy scale info
  uint64 flags,           // Per the flag request
  uint64 firstAttributeId,// The attribute id
  uint64 bufferAddress,   // Guest physical address of the output buffer
  uint64 bufferSize       // The size in bytes of the output buffer
);
As specified in PAPR+ v2.11, section 14.14.3.

This H_CALL can query either all the attributes at once with
firstAttributeId = 0, flags = 0 as well as query only one attribute
at a time with firstAttributeId = id, flags = 1.

The output buffer consists of the following
1. number of attributes              - 8 bytes
2. array offset to the data location - 8 bytes
3. version info                      - 1 byte
4. A data array of size num attributes, which contains the following:
  a. attribute ID              - 8 bytes
  b. attribute value in number - 8 bytes
  c. attribute name in string  - 64 bytes
  d. attribute value in string - 64 bytes

The new H_CALL exports information in direct string value format, hence
a new interface has been introduced in
/sys/firmware/papr/energy_scale_info to export this information to
userspace so that the firmware can add new values without the need for
the kernel to be changed.

The H_CALL returns the name, numeric value and string value (if exists)

The format of exposing the sysfs information is as follows:
/sys/firmware/papr/energy_scale_info/
   |-- <id>/
     |-- desc
     |-- value
     |-- value_desc (if exists)
   |-- <id>/
     |-- desc
     |-- value
     |-- value_desc (if exists)
...

The energy information that is exported is useful for userspace tools
such as powerpc-utils. Currently these tools infer the
"power_mode_data" value in the lparcfg, which in turn is obtained from
the to be deprecated H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL.

On future platforms, such userspace utilities will have to look at the
data returned from the new H_CALL being populated in this new sysfs
interface and report this information directly without the need of
interpretation.
