The AMD Heterogeneous core design and Hardware Feedback Interface (HFI)
provide behavioral classification and a dynamically updated ranking table
for the scheduler to use when choosing cores for tasks.
There are two CPU core types defined: Classic and Dense. Classic cores are
the standard performance cores, while Dense cores are optimized for area and
efficiency.
Heterogeneous compute refers to CPU implementations that are comprised
of more than one architectural class, each with two capabilities. This
means each CPU reports two separate capabilities: "perf" and "eff".
Each capability lists all core ranking numbers between 0 and 255, where
a higher number represents a higher capability.
Heterogeneous systems can also extend to more than two architectural
classes.
The purpose of the scheduling feedback mechanism is to provide information
to the operating system scheduler in real time, allowing the scheduler to
direct threads to the optimal core during task scheduling.
All core ranking data are provided by the PMFW via a shared memory ranking
table, which the driver reads and uses to update core capabilities to the
scheduler. When the hardware updates the table, it generates a platform
interrupt to notify the OS to read the new ranking table.

Separate the probes for HSMP ACPI and platform device drivers.
Provide a Kconfig option to choose between ACPI or the platform device
based driver. The common code which is the core part of the HSMP driver
maintained at hsmp.c is guarded by AMD_HSMP config and is selected by
these two driver configs. This will be built into separate hsmp_common.ko
module and acpi as hsmp_acpi and plat as amd_hsmp respectively.
Also add "|| COMPILE_TEST" clause in Kconfig to get build coverage for
HSMP.

Due to electrical and mechanical constraints in certain platform designs
there may be likely interference of relatively high-powered harmonics of
the (G-)DDR memory clocks with local radio module frequency bands used
by Wifi 6/6e/7.
To mitigate this, AMD has introduced a mechanism that devices can use to
notify active use of particular frequencies so that other devices can make
relative internal adjustments as necessary to avoid this resonance.
