drm/dp: Add helpers to calculate the link BW overhead
Add helpers drivers can use to calculate the BW allocation overhead - due to SSC, FEC, DSC and data alignment on symbol cycles - and the channel coding efficiency - due to the 8b/10b, 128b/132b encoding. On 128b/132b links the FEC overhead is part of the coding efficiency, so not accounted for in the BW allocation overhead. The drivers can use these functions to calculate a ratio, controlling the stream symbol insertion rate of the source device in each SST TU or MST MTP frame. Drivers can calculate this m/n = (pixel_data_rate * drm_dp_bw_overhead()) / (link_data_rate * drm_dp_bw_channel_coding_efficiency()) ratio for a given link and pixel stream and with that the slots_per_mtp = CEIL(64 * m / n) allocated slots per MTP for the stream in a link frame and with that the pbn = slots_per_mtp * drm_mst_get_pbn_divider() allocated PBNs for the stream on the MST link path. Take drm_dp_bw_overhead() into use in drm_dp_calc_pbn_mode(), for drivers calculating the PBN value directly. v2: - Add dockbook description to drm_dp_bw_channel_coding_efficiency(). (LKP). - Clarify the way m/n ratio is calculated in the commit log. v3: - Fix compile breakage for !CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE. (LKP) - Account for FEC_PM overhead (+ 0.0015625 %), add comment with the formula to calculate the total FEC overhead. (Ville) v4: - Rename DRM_DP_OVERHEAD_SSC to DRM_DP_OVERHEAD_SSC_REF_CLK. (Ville) v5: - Clarify in the commit log what MTP means. - Simplify the commit log's formula to calculate PBN.
