Currently a genpd only handles the performance state requirements from the devices under its control. This commit extends that to also handle the performance state requirement(s) put on the master genpd by its sub-domains. There is a separate value required for each master that the genpd has and so a new field is added to the struct gpd_link (link->performance_state), which represents the link between a genpd and its master. The struct gpd_link also got another field prev_performance_state, which is used by genpd core as a temporary variable during transitions. On a call to dev_pm_genpd_set_performance_state(), the genpd core first updates the performance state of the masters of the device's genpd and then updates the performance state of the genpd. The masters do the same and propagate performance state updates to their masters before updating their own. The performance state transition from genpd to its master is done with the help of dev_pm_opp_xlate_performance_state(), which looks at the OPP tables of both the domains to translate the state.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
