At present, sbrmi driver under hwmon subsystem, is probed as an i2c driver,
fetches data using APML specified protocol and reports through hwmon power sensor.

AMD provides additional information using custom protocols, which cannot be
enumerated as hwmon sensors. Hence, move the existing functionality from hwmon/
to misc/ and add support for following custom protocols
  - read Processor feature capabilities and configuration information
    through side band.
  - read Machine Check Architecture(MCA) registers over sideband.
    The information is accessed for range of MCA registers by passing
    register address and thread ID to the protocol.

NOTE: AMD defines Advanced Platform Management Link (APML) interface which provides
system management functionality access to the baseboard management
controller (BMC).

This patchset is an attempt to keep all APML core functionality in one place,
provide hwmon and IOCTL interface to user space
1. [Patch 1] Move the i2c client probe, hwmon sensors and sbrmi core functionality
   from drivers/hwmon to drivers/misc/
2. [Patch 2] Move sbrmi core functionality to new core file to export core functionality
3. [Patch 3] Move hwmon device sensor as separate entity
4. [Patch 4] Convert i2c to regmap which provides multiple benefits
   over direct smbus APIs.
    a. i2c/i3c support and
    b. 1 byte/2 byte RMI register size addressing
5. [Patch 5] Optimize wait condition with regmap API regmap_read_poll_timeout as per
   suggestion from Arnd
6. [Patch 6, 7] Register a misc device which provides
    a. An ioctl interface through node /dev/sbrmiX
    b. Register sets is common across APML protocols. IOCTL is providing
       synchronization among protocols as transactions may create
       race condition.
7. [Subsequent patches 8, 9 and 10] add support for AMD custom protocols
    a. CPUID
    b. MCAMSR
    c. Register xfer
8. [Patch 11] AMD side band description document

Open-sourced and widely used [1]_ will continue to provide user-space programmable API.
