This commit adds:
- new uclass id: UCLASS_ADC
- new uclass driver: drivers/adc/adc-uclass.c
The new uclass's API allows for ADC operation on:
* single-channel with channel selection by a number
* multti-channel with channel selection by bit mask
ADC uclass's functions:
* single-channel:
- adc_start_channel() - start channel conversion
- adc_channel_data() - get conversion data
- adc_channel_single_shot() - start/get conversion data
* multi-channel:
- adc_start_channels() - start selected channels conversion
- adc_channels_data() - get conversion data
- adc_channels_single_shot() - start/get conversion data for channels
selected by bit mask
* general:
- adc_stop() - stop the conversion
- adc_vdd_value() - positive reference Voltage value with polarity [uV]
- adc_vss_value() - negative reference Voltage value with polarity [uV]
- adc_data_mask() - conversion data bit mask
The device tree can provide below constraints/properties:
- vdd-polarity-negative: if true: Vdd = vdd-microvolts * (-1)
- vss-polarity-negative: if true: Vss = vss-microvolts * (-1)
- vdd-supply: phandle to Vdd regulator's node
- vss-supply: phandle to Vss regulator's node
And optional, checked only if the above corresponding, doesn't exist:
- vdd-microvolts: positive reference Voltage [uV]
- vss-microvolts: negative reference Voltage [uV]

Many System on Chip(SoC) solutions are complex with multiple processors
on the same die dedicated to either general purpose of specialized
functions. Many examples do exist in today's SoCs from various vendors.
Typical examples are micro controllers such as an ARM M3/M0 doing a
offload of specific function such as event integration or power
management or controlling camera etc.
Traditionally, the responsibility of loading up such a processor with a
firmware and communication has been with a High Level Operating
System(HLOS) such as Linux. However, there exists classes of products
where Linux would need to expect services from such a processor or the
delay of Linux and operating system being able to load up such a
firmware is unacceptable.
To address these needs, we need some minimal capability to load such a
system and ensure it is started prior to an Operating System(Linux or
any other) is started up.
NOTE: This is NOT meant to be a solve-all solution, instead, it tries to
address certain class of SoCs and products that need such a solution.
A very simple model is introduced here as part of the initial support
that supports microcontrollers with internal memory (no MMU, no
execution from external memory, or specific image format needs). This
basic framework can then (hopefully) be extensible to other complex SoC
processor support as need be.

While I2C supports multi-master buses this is difficult to get right.
The implementation on the master side in software is quite complex.
Clock-stretching and the arbitrary time that an I2C transaction can take
make it difficult to share the bus fairly in the face of high traffic.
When one or more masters can be reset independently part-way through a
transaction it is hard to know the state of the bus.
This driver provides a scheme based on two 'claim' GPIOs, one driven by the
AP (Application Processor, meaning the main CPU) and one driven by the EC
(Embedded Controller, a small CPU aimed at handling system tasks). With
these they can communicate and reliably share the bus. This scheme has
minimal overhead and involves very little code. It is used on snow to
permit the EC and the AP to share access to the main system PMIC and
battery. The scheme can survive reboots by either side without difficulty.
This scheme has been tested in the field with millions of devices.
Since U-Boot runs on the AP, the terminology used is 'our' claim GPIO,
meaning the AP's, and 'their' claim GPIO, meaning the EC's. This terminology
is used by the device tree bindings in Linux also.

Add a new I2C_MUX uclass. Devices in this class can multiplex between
several I2C buses, selecting them one at a time for use by the system.
The multiplexing mechanism is left to the driver to decide - it may be
controlled by GPIOs, for example.
The uclass supports only two methods: select() and deselect().
The current mux state is expected to be stored in the mux itself since
it is the only thing that knows how to make things work. The mux can
record the current state and then avoid switching unless it is necessary.
So select() can be skipped if the mux is already in the correct state.
Also deselect() can be made a nop if required.
