This patch introduces the initial scaffolding for the Qualcomm DSP accelerator (QDA) driver under drivers/accel/. The new Kconfig option DRM_ACCEL_QDA integrates the driver with the DRM/accel subsystem, and the accel Makefile is updated to build the driver as a loadable module. A minimal qda_drv.c file is added to provide basic module_init/module_exit hooks so that the driver can be built and loaded.
Subsequent patches will add:
- RPMSG-based communication with Qualcomm Hexagon DSPs - FastRPC integration for userspace offload - DMA-BUF support and memory management - GEM, PRIME and IOCTL interfaces for compute job submission
This patch only wires up the basic driver framework and does not yet provide functional DSP offload capabilities.
