    x86: add support for Intel Low Power Subsystem · 3d48aab1

    We are starting to see traditional SoC peripherals also in the x86 world in
    chips like Intel Lynxpoint. Typically we already have a Linux driver for
    the peripheral but it takes advantage of the common clk framework to
    control and retrieve information about the peripheral clock.
    
    So far there hasn't been a standard way on x86 to pass information such as
    clock rate from whatever the configuration system is used to the driver,
    but instead different variations have emerged, like adding this information
    to the platform data.
    
    Solve this by adding a new config option X86_INTEL_LPSS. If this is
    selected we enable common clk framework (and everything else) that is
    needed to support the Intel LPSS drivers.
    
    Enabling common clk framework on x86 was originally proposed by Mark Brown.
