v4 cover arm64: topology: improvements

Hi,

Here is the V4 with the general improvements for topology stuff. This cleans up the code and makes it work with cpufreq modules.

V4:
- Added Rby from Ionela.
- In 3/3, Print cpus instead of amu_fie_cpus and make it pr_debug instead.

PATCH v4 1/3 arm64: topology: Avoid the have_policy check

Every time I have stumbled upon this routine, I get confused with the way 'have_policy' is used and I have to dig in to understand why is it so. Here is an attempt to make it easier to understand, and hopefully it is an improvement.

The 'have_policy' check was just an optimization to avoid writing to amu_fie_cpus in case we don't have to, but that optimization itself is creating more confusion than the real work. Lets just do that if all the CPUs support AMUs. It is much cleaner that way.

PATCH v4 2/3 arm64: topology: Reorder init_amu_fie() a bit

In reply to Viresh Kumar

This patch does a couple of optimizations in init_amu_fie(), like early exits from paths where we don't need to continue any further, avoid the enable/disable dance, moving the calls to topology_scale_freq_invariant() just when we need them, instead of at the top of the routine, and avoiding calling it for the third time.

PATCH v4 3/3 arm64: topology: Make AMUs work with modular cpufreq drivers

In reply to Viresh Kumar

The AMU counters won't get used today if the cpufreq driver is built as a module as the amu core requires everything to be ready by late init.

Fix that properly by registering for cpufreq policy notifier. Note that the amu core don't have any cpufreq dependency after the first time CPUFREQ_CREATE_POLICY notifier is called for all the CPUs. And so we don't need to do anything on the CPUFREQ_REMOVE_POLICY notifier. And for the same reason we check if the CPUs are already parsed in the beginning of amu_fie_setup() and skip if that is true. Alternatively we can shoot a work from there to unregister the notifier instead, but that seemed too much instead of this simple check.

While at it, convert the print message to pr_debug instead of pr_info.
