First, this patch adds new worst-case latency values to the
omap_device_pm_latency struct.  Here the worst-case measured latencies
for the activate and deactivate hooks are stored.

In addition, add an option to auto-adjust the latency values used for
device activate/deactivate.

By setting a new 'OMAP_DEVICE_LATENCY_AUTO_ADJUST' flag in the
omap_device_pm_latency struct, the omap_device layer automatically
adjusts the activate/deactivate latencies to the worst-case measured
values.

Anytime a new worst-case value is found, it is printed to the console.
Here is an example log during boot using UART2 s an example.  After
boot, the OPP is manually changed to the 125MHz OPP:

[...]
Freeing init memory: 128K
omap_device: serial8250.2: new worst case deactivate latency 0: 30517
omap_device: serial8250.2: new worst case activate latency 0: 30517
omap_device: serial8250.2: new worst case activate latency 0: 218139648
omap_device: serial8250.2: new worst case deactivate latency 0: 61035
omap_device: serial8250.2: new worst case activate latency 0: 278076171
omap_device: serial8250.2: new worst case activate latency 0: 298614501
omap_device: serial8250.2: new worst case activate latency 0: 327331542

/ # echo 125000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed

omap_device: serial8250.2: new worst case deactivate latency 0: 91552

Motivation: this can be used as a technique to automatically determine
the worst case latency values.  The current method of printing a
warning on every violation is too noisy to actually interact the
console in order to set low OPP to discover latencies.

Another motivation for this patch is that the activate/deactivate
latenices can vary depending on the idlemode of the device.  While
working on the UARTs, I noticed that when using no-idle, the activate
latencies were as high as several hundred msecs as shown above.  When
the UARTs are in smart-idle, the max latency is well under 100 usecs.

nitpicky dumb comment: since the flags say auto adjust, do you care to
make this just a pr_info instead of a warning. it is not the same
severity as latency>activate_latency without AUTO_ADJUST right?

Agreed, will change to pr_info()
Thanks.

nitpick: I think you need {} for the else part too now a days..

you mean as a CodingStyle issue, or a compiler issue?
do you have a reference for this requirement?
do you mean if the 'if' part has {}, the else part should too, even if
it's a single line?

I don't really care one way or the other, just want to know more about
what you're suggesting.
Apologies on the obscure comment. I meant Coding style.
Documentation/CodingStyle says:

171 This does not apply if one branch of a conditional statement is a single
 172 statement. Use braces in both branches.
 173
 174 if (condition) {
 175         do_this();
 176         do_that();
 177 } else {
 178         otherwise();
 179 }
