v3 cover hwmon: Add support for Raspberry Pi voltage sensor

A common issue for the Raspberry Pi is an inadequate power supply. Noralf Tr?nnes started a discussion [1] about writing such undervoltage conditions into the kernel log.

Changes in V3:
- rebase
- simplify probing

Changes in V2:
- simplified Kconfig dependency suggested by Robin Murphy
- replace dt-binding by probing from firmware driver
- add hwmon documentation
- minor improvements suggested by Guenter Roeck

PATCH v3 1/6 ARM: bcm2835: Add GET_THROTTLED firmware property

Recent Raspberry Pi firmware provides a mailbox property to detect under-voltage conditions. Here is the current definition.

The u32 value returned by the firmware is divided into 2 parts:
- lower 16-bits are the live value
- upper 16-bits are the history or sticky value

Bits:
0: undervoltage
1: arm frequency capped
2: currently throttled
16: undervoltage has occurred
17: arm frequency capped has occurred
18: throttling has occurred

PATCH v3 2/6 hwmon: Add support for RPi voltage sensor

In reply to Stefan Wahren

Currently there is no easy way to detect undervoltage conditions on a remote Raspberry Pi. This hwmon driver retrieves the state of the undervoltage sensor via mailbox interface. The handling based on Noralf's modifications to the downstream firmware driver. In case of an undervoltage condition only an entry is written to the kernel log.

Since the raspberrypi-hwmon driver is tied to the VC4 firmware instead of particular hardware its registration should be in the firmware driver.
