[PATCH] RapidIO support: core base 

Adds a RapidIO subsystem to the kernel.  RIO is a switched fabric interconnect
used in higher-end embedded applications.  The curious can look at the specs
over at http://www.rapidio.org



The core code implements enumeration/discovery, management of
devices/resources, and interfaces for RIO drivers.

There's a lot more to do to take advantages of all the hardware features.
However, this should provide a good base for folks with RIO hardware to start
contributing.

      <title>Introduction</title>

  <para>

	RapidIO is a high speed switched fabric interconnect with

	features aimed at the embedded market.  RapidIO provides

	support for memory-mapped I/O as well as message-based

	transactions over the switched fabric network. RapidIO has

	a standardized discovery mechanism not unlike the PCI bus

	standard that allows simple detection of devices in a

	network.

  </para>

  <para>

  	This documentation is provided for developers intending

	to support RapidIO on new architectures, write new drivers,

	or to understand the subsystem internals.

# RapidIO configuration

config RAPIDIO_8_BIT_TRANSPORT

	bool "8-bit transport addressing"

	depends on RAPIDIO

	---help---

	  By default, the kernel assumes a 16-bit addressed RapidIO

	  network. By selecting this option, the kernel will support

	  an 8-bit addressed network.



config RAPIDIO_DISC_TIMEOUT

	int "Discovery timeout duration (seconds)"

	depends on RAPIDIO

	default "30"

	---help---

	  Amount of time a discovery node waits for a host to complete

	  enumeration beforing giving up.
