Subject: [PATCH v2 01/18] genpd: Create a new subsystem directory to host genpd providers

There are currently ~60 users of the genpd provider interface, which
implementations are sprinkled across various subsystems. To simplify with
maintenance let's create a new subsystem (drivers/genpd) and start moving
the providers in there.

My intention is also to host a git tree to collect and to get the patches
tested/integrated through the linux-next tree. Ideally this should release
some of the burden on the soc maintainers.

Note that, I will of course require acks/reviews from the current platform
maintainers, hence the MAINTAINERS file needs to be updated accordingly for
each genpd provider that is moved into the new genpd subsystem.

Maybe not everyone will understand the acronym?
"GENERIC POWER MANAGEMENT DOMAIN PROVIDERS"?

Either way:
