Sudeep Dutt 726526c355 misc: mic: add a bus driver for virtual MIC devices
This MIC virtual bus driver takes the responsibility of creating all
the virtual devices connected to the PCIe device on the host and the
platform device on the card. The MIC bus hardware operations provide
a way to abstract certain hardware details from the base physical devices.
Examples of devices added on the MIC virtual bus include host DMA and card DMA.
This abstraction enables using a common DMA driver on host and card.

config INTEL_MIC_BUS

help
This option is selected by any driver which registers a
device or driver on the MIC Bus, such as CONFIG_INTEL_MIC_HOST,
CONFIG_INTEL_MIC_CARD, CONFIG_INTEL_MIC_X100_DMA etc.
If you are building a host/card kernel with an Intel MIC device
then say M (recommended) or Y, else say N. If unsure say N.
More information about the Intel MIC family as well as the Linux
OS and tools for MIC to use with this driver are available from
<http://software.intel.com/en-us/mic-developer>.

help
This enables Host Driver support for the Intel Many Integrated
Core (MIC) family of PCIe form factor coprocessor devices that
run a 64 bit Linux OS. The driver manages card OS state and
enables communication between host and card. Intel MIC X100
devices are currently supported.

help
This enables card driver support for the Intel Many Integrated
Core (MIC) device family. The card driver communicates shutdown/
crash events to the host and allows registration/configuration of
virtio devices. Intel MIC X100 devices are currently supported.
If you are building a card kernel for an Intel MIC device then
say M (recommended) or Y, else say N. If unsure say N.
