  Changes in v2:
 - Changed MT8186 to use only two power domains for the GPU.

We finally have working GPU DVFS on MediaTek SoCs.
On Panfrost.
For real.
...and the best part is that it's going upstream.

In order to get GPU DVFS working, it was necessary to satisfy a
specific constraint (which is different, depending on the SoC)
between two regulators: GPU VCORE and GPU SRAM.
This was done through adding the mtk-regulator-coupler driver,
which transparently manages the voltage relation between these
two vregs, hence completely eliminating the need to manage these
regulators in the Panfrost driver; this solves the long standing
issue with devfreq+opp tables not supporting managing voltages
for two regulators per opp entry out of the box, due to which
we never got GPU DVFS on those SoCs, often locking them out to
a low GPU frequency.

This changes. Right now!

Tested on MT8192, MT8195 Chromebooks.

This series depends on [1].
