[v3,00/28] Add support for QMC HDLC, framer infrastruture and PEF2256 framer

  Hi,

I have a system where I need to handle an HDLC interface and some audio
data.

The HDLC data are transferred using a TDM bus on which a PEF2256
(E1/T1 framer) is present. The PEF2256 transfers data from/to the TDM
bus to/from the E1 line. This PEF2256 is connected to a PowerQUICC SoC
for the control path and the TDM is connected to the SoC (QMC component)
for the data path.

From the QMC HDLC driver, I need to handle HDLC data using the QMC,
carrier detection using the PEF2256 (E1 line carrier) and set/get some
PEF2256 configuration.

The QMC HDLC driver considers the PEF2256 as a generic framer.
It performs operations that involve the PEF2256 through the generic
framer API.

The audio data are exchanged with the PEF2256 using a CPU DAI connected
to the TDM bus through the QMC and the PEF2256 needs to be seen as a
codec in order to be linked to the CPU DAI.
The codec handles the carrier detection using the PEF2256 and reports
the carrier state to the ALSA subsystem using the ASoC jack detection.

The codec, even if instantiated by the PEF2256 driver, considers the
PEF2256 as a generic framer.

The generic framer has:
 - 2 consumers (QMC HDLC drv and codec)
 - 1 provider (PEF2256)

So, the design is the following:
                        +------------------+           +---------+
                        | QMC              | <- TDM -> | PEF2256 | <-> E1
     +---------+        |  +-------------+ |           |         |
     | CPU DAI | <-data--> | QMC channel | |           |         |
     +---------+        |  +-------------+ |           |         |
+--------------+        |  +-------------+ |           |         |
| QMC HDLC drv | <-data--> | QMC channel | |           |         |
+--------------+        |  +-------------+ |           |         |
     ^                  +------------------+           |         |
     |   +--------+     +-------------+                |         |
     +-> | framer | <-> | PEF2256 drv | <- local bus ->|         |
         |        |     |             |                +---------+
     +-> |        |     |             |
     |   +--------+     |  +-------+  |
     +-------------------> | codec |  |
                        |  +-------+  |
                        +-------------+

Further more, the TDM timeslots used by the QMC HDLC driver need to be
configured at runtime (QMC dynamic timeslots).

Several weeks ago, I sent two series related to this topic:
 - Add the Lantiq PEF2256 audio support [1]
 - RFC Add support for QMC HDLC and PHY [2]
This current series is a rework of these two series taking into account
feedbacks previously received.

In order to implement all of this, I do the following:
 1) Perform some fixes (patches 1, 2, 3, 4)
 2) Introduce the QMC HDLC driver (patches 5, 6, 7)
 3) Add QMC dynamic timeslot support (patches 8 - 18)
 4) Add timeslots change support in QMC HDLC (patch 19)
 5) Introduce framer infrastructure (patch 20)
 6) Add PEF2256 framer provider (patches 11, 22, 23, 24, 25)
 7) Add framer codec as a framer consumer (patch 26)
 8) Add framer support as a framer consumer in QMC HDLC (patch 27, 28)

The series contains the full story and detailed modifications.
If needed, the series can be split and/or commmits can be squashed.
Let me know.

Compare to the previous iteration
  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kernel/20230726150225.483464-1-herve.codina@bootlin.com/
This v3 series mainly:
 - Fixes some implementation details.
 - Adds a new patch (patch 5) to remove existing inline keyword in the
   QMC driver.
 - Squashes patches related to the QMC HDLC binding together.

Are there any dependencies in one of the -next trees?
As it the series doesn't seem to build on top of net-next 
with allmodconfig.

As far as I know there are not dependencies, this series was tests on 
top of 6.5-rc2.

However it looks like it has never been built with CONFIG_MODULES 
enabled. As Hervé is AFK at the moment, I'll see if I can give it a fix.
