firmware: qcom: scm: Add wait-queue handling logic
When the firmware (FW) supports multiple requests per VM, multiple requests
from the same/different VM can reach the firmware at the same time. Since
the firmware currently being used has limited resources, it guards them
with a resource lock and puts requests on a wait-queue internally and
signals to HLOS that it is doing so. It does this by returning a new return
value in addition to success or error: SCM_WAITQ_SLEEP. A sleeping SCM call
can be woken up by an interrupt that the FW raises.
1) SCM_WAITQ_SLEEP:
When an SCM call receives this return value instead of success
or error, FW has placed this call on a wait-queue and has signalled
HLOS to put it to non-interruptible sleep.
Along with this return value, FW also passes to HLOS `wq_ctx` -
a unique number (UID) identifying the wait-queue that it has put
the call on, internally. This is to help HLOS with its own
bookkeeping to wake this sleeping call later.
Additionally, FW also passes to HLOS `smc_call_ctx` - a UID
identifying the SCM call thus being put to sleep. This is also
for HLOS' bookkeeping to wake this call up later.
These two additional values are passed via the a1 and a2
registers.
N.B.: The "ctx" in the above UID names = "context".
The handshake mechanism that HLOS uses to talk to FW about wait-queue
operations involves two new SMC calls.
1) get_wq_ctx():
Arguments: None
Returns: wq_ctx, flags, more_pending
Get the wait-queue context, and wake up either one or all of the
sleeping SCM calls associated with that wait-queue.
Additionally, repeat this if there are more wait-queues that are
ready to have their requests woken up (`more_pending`).
2) wq_resume(smc_call_ctx):
Arguments: smc_call_ctx
HLOS needs to issue this in response to receiving an
IRQ, passing to FW the same smc_call_ctx that FW
receives from HLOS via the get_wq_ctx() call.
(The mechanism to wake a SMC call back up is described in detail below)

With the exception of get_wq_ctx(), the other SMC call wq_resume() can
return WQ_SLEEP (these nested rounds of WQ_SLEEP are not shown in the
above diagram for the sake of simplicity). Therefore, introduce a new
do-while loop to handle multiple WQ_SLEEP return values for the same
parent SCM call.
Request Completion in the above diagram refers to either a success
return value (zero) or error (and not SMC_WAITQ_SLEEP)
Also add the interrupt handler that wakes up a sleeping SCM call.
