ChangeLog:
=========
v2 => v3:
a) MIC bus device private pointer cleanup as per feedback from
   Greg Kroah-Hartman.
b) Fixed minor Makefile conflict after rebasing to v3.16-rc2

v1 => v2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/29/981
a) MIC bus driver cleanups and device release callback fix in patch 2,
   as per feedback from Greg Kroah-Hartman.

v1: Initial post @ https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/27/819

These patches are being sent to char-misc because there is a dependency
between the patches for dma driver and other drivers.

Description:
============
This set of patches add support for MIC X100 dma driver.
MIC PCIe card has a dma controller with 8 channels. These channels are
shared between the host s/w and the card s/w. 0 to 3 are used by host
nd 4 to 7 by card. As the dma device doesn't show up as PCIe device,
a virtual bus called mic bus is created and virtual dma devices are
created on it by the host/card drivers. On host the channels are private
and used only by the host driver to transfer data for the virtio devices.

Here is a higher level block diagram.

The following series of patches are partitioned as follows:

Patch 1: Add mic bus and dma driver documentation.
Patch 2: Add a bus driver for virtual MIC devices.
Patch 3: MIC X100 DMA Driver.
Patch 4: Add threaded irq support in host driver.
	 This is needed as the dma driver uses threaded irq.
Patch 5: Use dma to transfer data between MIC and host.
	 Authors: Siva Yerramreddy, Ashutosh Dixit
Patch 6: Add threaded irq support in mic_request_card_irq.
	 This is needed as the dma driver uses threaded irq.
Patch 7: Add dma device on mic bus.
Patch 8: Modify the mpss script to load/unload mic_x100_dma.ko.

The patches have been compiled/validated against v3.16-rc2. Tested using
dmatest module with module parameter "threads_per_chan=60". These patches
have also been scanned by Fengguang Wu's 0-day infrastructure and no
issues have been reported.

Thanks to Dan Williams, Vinod Koul, Jon Mason, Dave Jiang for the initial
review.
