Thie patchset is a very experiment patchset to support the System Suspend
feature of the Amlogic Meson GX SoCs.

These SoCs implements system suspend using a non-standard PSCI CPU_SUSPEND
parameter to enter system suspend.

This sounds like a violation of the CPU_SUSPEND semantics.

A small driver is added to properly fill the platform_suspend_ops and make
to correct SMC call.

Ignoring the fact that this is a blatant violation of the PSCI CPU_SUSPEND
semantics, this certainly should not be a separate driver.

In order to wake up from an alarm, these SoCs have a special memory mapped
register where an alarm time delay in seconds is stored.
In order to reuse the RTC wakealarm feature, implement a fake RTC device
that uses the system time to calculate a delay to write to the register.

Note that this RFC is here to seek a better way to handle these platform
specific features.
