This series introduces Runtime PM for Raspberry Pi's GPU, V3D.
Currently, the GPU clock stays up during the whole operation, even if
the GPU is idle. By introducing Runtime PM, we can now turn off the
clock completely during idle. For example, with this series, when
checking `vcgencmd measure_clock v3d` in the Raspberry Pi 5, we get:

(idle)

$ vcgencmd measure_clock v3d
frequency(0)=0

(running glmark2)

$ vcgencmd measure_clock v3d
frequency(0)=960016128

To implement PM for V3D, it was needed to add a prepare and unprepare
hook to RPi's firmware clocks. Currently, they don't turn on and off,
nor lower the clock rate. Therefore, PATCH 1/3 addresses this issue in
clk/bcm/clk-raspberrypi.c.

The other two patches are related to PM enablement in the V3D driver.

To ease testing in Raspberry Pi 4 and 5, I prepared a downstream branch
backporting this series to rpi-6.12.y [1].
