[PATCH 0/6] Add support for Qualcomm TSCSS hardware

From: Imran Shaik <hidden>

This series introduces support for the Qualcomm Timestamp Counter Subsystem
(TSCSS) hardware, a time synchronization subsystem present on Qualcomm
Lemans, Monaco and QDU1000 SoCs.

TSCSS is composed of two main hardware blocks:
 - Timestamp Counter (TSC): a free-running hardware counter that provides
   continuous timekeeping for the SoC, and is functional with a GCC TSC AHB
   config clock and a global counter clock. The TSC counter resolution and
   supported functionalities vary across SoC variants.

 - Event Timestamp Unit (ETU): an optional block that captures TSC counter
   timestamps against external hardware events. Each ETU slice binds a
   slice identifier to an external event selector, and the ETU additionally
   requires its own clock, pinctrl along with either a per-slice interrupt
   (QDU1000) or a single summary interrupt across all ETU slices (Lemans
   and Monaco).

The address offsets shown in the diagram above are specific to Qualcomm
Lemans SoC.

This series currently covers only the TSC block driver functionality; ETU
driver support will follow in a later series.
