power_mgmt: APIs for devices to signal busy

Certain Low power SOC states (e.g. deep sleep)  will result in device
IP blocks losing state. In such a scenario it can be useful to have
a mechanism for devices (driver code) to signal the power manager /
policy that they are in the middle of a transaction.

We expect the device driver code to make a call to
device_busy_set(device *) before initiating a transaction and
device_busy_clear(device *) on completion. It is expected that device
driver developers will add this as necessary in their drivers.

Further an API is provided  for power manager application / policy to
check this. Based on this the power manager / policy can  decide
whether or not to go into a particular power state.
