William Breathitt Gray 0040a390d2 counter: Introduce the Generic Counter interface 
This patch introduces the Generic Counter interface for supporting
counter devices.

In the context of the Generic Counter interface, a counter is defined as
a device that reports one or more "counts" based on the state changes of
one or more "signals" as evaluated by a defined "count function."

Driver callbacks should be provided to communicate with the device: to
read and write various Signals and Counts, and to set and get the
"action mode" and "count function" for various Synapses and Counts
respectively.

To support a counter device, a driver must first allocate the available
Counter Signals via counter_signal structures. These Signals should
be stored as an array and set to the signals array member of an
allocated counter_device structure before the Counter is registered to
the system.

Counter Counts may be allocated via counter_count structures, and
respective Counter Signal associations (Synapses) made via
counter_synapse structures. Associated counter_synapse structures are
stored as an array and set to the the synapses array member of the
respective counter_count structure. These counter_count structures are
set to the counts array member of an allocated counter_device structure
before the Counter is registered to the system.

A counter device is registered to the system by passing the respective
initialized counter_device structure to the counter_register function;
similarly, the counter_unregister function unregisters the respective
Counter. The devm_counter_register and devm_counter_unregister functions
serve as device memory-managed versions of the counter_register and
counter_unregister functions respectively.
