powercap / idle_inject: Add an idle injection framework
Initially, the cpu_cooling device for ARM was changed by adding a new policy inserting idle cycles. The intel_powerclamp driver does a similar action. Instead of implementing idle injections privately in the cpu_cooling device, move the idle injection code in a dedicated framework and give the opportunity to other frameworks to make use of it. The framework relies on the smpboot kthreads which handles via its main loop the common code for hotplugging and [un]parking. This code was previously tested with the cpu cooling device and went through several iterations. It results now in split code and API exported in the header file. It was tested with the cpu cooling device with success.

+ *
+ * The idle injection framework provides a way to force CPUs to enter idle
+ * states for a specified fraction of time over a specified period.
+ *
+ * It relies on the smpboot kthreads feature providing common code for CPU
+ * hotplug and thread [un]parking.
+ *
+ * All of the kthreads used for idle injection are created at init time.
+ *
+ * Next, the users of the the idle injection framework provide a cpumask via
+ * its register function. The kthreads will be synchronized with respect to
+ * this cpumask.
+ *
+ * The idle + run duration is specified via separate helpers and that allows
+ * idle injection to be started.
+ *
+ * The idle injection kthreads will call play_idle() with the idle duration
+ * specified as per the above.
+ *
+ * After all of them have been woken up, a timer is set to start the next idle
+ * injection cycle.
+ *
+ * The timer interrupt handler will wake up the idle injection kthreads for
+ * all of the CPUs in the cpumask provided by the user.
+ *
+ * Idle injection is stopped synchronously and no leftover idle injection
+ * kthread activity after its completion is guaranteed.
+ *
+ * It is up to the user of this framework to provide a lock for higher-level
+ * synchronization to prevent race conditions like starting idle injection
+ * while unregistering from the framework.
