dt-bindings: interconnect: qcom-bwmon: Add Maili cpu-bwmon compatiblegrafted
Add the Qualcomm Maili SoC compatible string for the CPU bandwidth monitor (BWMONv4). This falls back to the sdm845-bwmon compatible, consistent with the existing pattern used by other recent SoCs such as sm8750 and kaanapali.

+=================
+Keyboard notifier
+=================
+
+One can use register_keyboard_notifier to get called back on keyboard
+events (see kbd_keycode() function for details). The passed structure is
+keyboard_notifier_param (see <linux/keyboard.h>):
+
+- 'vc' always provide the VC for which the keyboard event applies;
+- 'down' is 1 for a key press event, 0 for a key release;
+- 'shift' is the current modifier state, mask bit indexes are KG_*;
+- 'ledstate' is the current LED state;
+- 'value' depends on the type of event.
+
+- KBD_KEYCODE events are always sent before other events, value is the keycode.
+- KBD_UNBOUND_KEYCODE events are sent if the keycode is not bound to a keysym.
+ value is the keycode.
+- KBD_UNICODE events are sent if the keycode -> keysym translation produced a
+ unicode character. value is the unicode value.
+- KBD_KEYSYM events are sent if the keycode -> keysym translation produced a
+ non-unicode character. value is the keysym.
+- KBD_POST_KEYSYM events are sent after the treatment of non-unicode keysyms.
+ That permits one to inspect the resulting LEDs for instance.
+
+For each kind of event but the last, the callback may return NOTIFY_STOP in
+order to "eat" the event: the notify loop is stopped and the keyboard event is
+dropped.
+
+In a rough C snippet, we have::
+
+ kbd_keycode(keycode) {
+ ...
+ params.value = keycode;
+ if (notifier_call_chain(KBD_KEYCODE,&params) == NOTIFY_STOP)
+ || !bound) {
+ notifier_call_chain(KBD_UNBOUND_KEYCODE,&params);
+ return;
+ }
+
+ if (unicode) {
+ param.value = unicode;
+ if (notifier_call_chain(KBD_UNICODE,&params) == NOTIFY_STOP)
+ return;
+ emit unicode;
+ return;
+ }
+
+ params.value = keysym;
+ if (notifier_call_chain(KBD_KEYSYM,&params) == NOTIFY_STOP)
+ return;
+ apply keysym;
+ notifier_call_chain(KBD_POST_KEYSYM,&params);
+ }
+
+.. note:: This notifier is usually called from interrupt context.
