Under some circumstances, firmware in the QAT devices could become
unresponsive. The Heartbeat feature provides a mechanism to detect
unresponsive devices.
The QAT FW periodically writes to memory a set of counters that allow
to detect the liveness of a device. This patch adds logic to enable
the reporting of those counters, analyze them and report if a device
is alive or not.
In particular this adds
(1) heartbeat enabling, reading and detection logic
(2) reporting of heartbeat status and configuration via debugfs
(3) documentation for the newly created sysfs entries
(4) configuration of FW settings related to heartbeat, e.g. tick period
(5) logic to convert time in ms (provided by the user) to clock ticks
This patch introduces a new folder in debugfs called heartbeat with the
following attributes:
- status
- queries_sent
- queries_failed
- config
All attributes except config are reading only. In particular:
- `status` file returns 0 when device is operational and -1 otherwise.
- `queries_sent` returns the total number of heartbeat queries sent.
- `queries_failed` returns the total number of heartbeat queries failed.
- `config` allows to adjust the frequency at which the firmware writes
counters to memory. This period is given in milliseconds and it is
fixed for GEN4 devices.

With the growing number of Intel crypto drivers, it makes sense to
group them all into a single drivers/crypto/intel/ directory.
