[PATCH 0/2] gdb/scripts: Improve lx-clk-summary

[Leonard Crestez]

The earlier series adding clk support to gdb/scripts was quickly
accepted but some concerns were raised by Stephen Boyd so this series
attempts to address them.

Link to previous series: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/4/22/55

This is not a v2 and squashing is not expected.

Fields other than clk rate not covered because they're much more rarely
used and cache logic can get more complicated and brittle.

LX_GDBPARSED is used in constants.py.in because python does not
understand C integer literal suffixes like the "1UL" from the definition
of BIT() used by CLK_GET_RATE_NOCACHE. Alternative workarounds would be
hacking away UL suffixes with sed or redefining BIT&co but relying on
gdb evaluation is easier and much more flexible.

[PATCH 1/2] scripts/gdb: Cleanup error handling in list helpers

[Leonard Crestez]

An incorrect argument to list_for_each is an internal error in gdb
scripts so a TypeError should be raised. The gdb.GdbError exception type
is intended for user errors such as incorrect invocation.

Drop the type assertion in list_for_each_entry because list_for_each isn't
going to suddenly yield something else.

Applies to both list and hlist

[PATCH 2/2] scripts/gdb: Print cached rate in lx-clk-summary

[Leonard Crestez]

The clk rate is always stored in clk_core but might be out of date and
require calls to update from hardware.

Deal with that case by printing a (c) suffix.

This should be done to other "type errors" in the gdb scripts too.
