drm/meson: Add AFBCD module driver



This adds the driver for the ARM Framebuffer Compression decoders found
in the Amlogic GXM and G12A SoCs.

The Amlogic GXM and G12A AFBC decoder are totally different, the GXM only
handling only the AFBC v1.0 modes and the G12A decoder handling the
AFBC v1.2 modes.

The G12A AFBC decoder is an external IP integrated in the video pipeline,
and the GXM AFBC decoder seems to the an Amlogic custom decoder more
tighly integrated in the video pipeline.

The GXM AFBC decoder can handle only one AFBC plane for 2 available
OSD planes available in HW, and the G12A AFBC decoder can handle up
to 4 AFBC planes for up to 3 OSD planes available in HW.

The Amlogic GXM supports 16x16 SPARSE and 16x16 SPLIT AFBC buffers up
to 4k.

On the other side, for G12A SPLIT is mandatory in 16x16 block mode, but
for 4k modes 32x8+SPLIT AFBC buffers is manadatory for performances reasons.

The RDMA is used here to reset and program the AFBC decoder unit
on each vsync without involving the interrupt handler that can
be masked for a long period of time, producing display glitches.

For this we use the meson_rdma_writel_sync() which adds the register
write tuple (VPU register offset and register value) to the RDMA buffer
and write the value to the HW.

When enabled, the RDMA is enabled to rewrite the same sequence at the
next VSYNC event, until a new buffer is committed to the OSD plane.

Then the Amlogic G12A is switched to RDMA, the Amlogic GXM Decoder
doesn't need a reset/reprogram at each vsync, but needs to keep the
vsync interrupt enabled to trigger the RDMA module.
