/**
 * DOC: Bus layer - role and goal
 *
 * iwl-bus.h defines the API to the bus layer of the iwlwifi driver.
 * The bus layer is responsible for doing very basic bus operations that are
 * listed in the iwl_bus_ops structure.
 * The bus layer registers to the bus driver, advertises the supported HW and
 * gets notifications about enumeration, suspend, resume.
 * For the moment, the bus layer is not a linux kernel module as itself, and
 * the module_init function of the driver must call the bus specific
 * registration functions. These functions are listed at the end of this file.
 * For the moment, there is only one implementation of this interface: PCI-e.
 * This implementation is iwl-pci.c
 */

/**
 * DOC: encapsulation and type safety
 *
 * The iwl_bus describes the data that is shared amongst all the bus layer
 * implementations. This data is visible to other layers. Data in the bus
 * specific area is not visible outside the bus specific implementation.
 * iwl_bus holds a pointer to iwl_shared which holds pointer to all the other
 * layers of the driver (iwl_priv, iwl_trans). In fact, this is the way to go
 * when the transport layer needs to call a function of another layer.
 *
 * In order to achieve encapsulation, iwl_priv cannot be dereferenced from the
 * bus layer. Type safety is still kept since functions that gets iwl_priv gets
 * a typed pointer (as opposed to void *).
 */

/**
 * DOC: probe flow
 *
 * The module_init calls the bus specific registration function. The
 * registration to the bus layer will trigger an enumeration of the bus which
 * will call the bus specific probe function.
 * The first thing this function must do is to allocate the memory needed by
 * iwl_bus + the bus_specific data.
 * Once the bus specific probe function has configured the hardware, it
 * chooses the appropriate transport layer and calls iwl_probe that will run
 * the bus independent probe flow.
 *
 * Note: The bus specific code must set the following data in iwl_bus before it
 *       calls iwl_probe:
 *	* bus->dev
 *	* bus->irq
 *	* bus->ops
