	  Driver to enable support for the VFIO QorIQ DPAA2 fsl-mc
	  (Management Complex) devices. This is required to passthrough
	  fsl-mc bus devices using the VFIO framework.

vfio/fsl-mc: Add VFIO framework skeleton for fsl-mc devices DPAA2 (Data Path Acceleration Architecture) consists in mechanisms for processing Ethernet packets, queue management, accelerators, etc. The Management Complex (mc) is a hardware entity that manages the DPAA2 hardware resources. It provides an object-based abstraction for software drivers to use the DPAA2 hardware. The MC mediates operations such as create, discover, destroy of DPAA2 objects. The MC provides memory-mapped I/O command interfaces (MC portals) which DPAA2 software drivers use to operate on DPAA2 objects. A DPRC is a container object that holds other types of DPAA2 objects. Each object in the DPRC is a Linux device and bound to a driver. The MC-bus driver is a platform driver (different from PCI or platform bus). The DPRC driver does runtime management of a bus instance. It performs the initial scan of the DPRC and handles changes in the DPRC configuration (adding/removing objects). All objects inside a container share the same hardware isolation context, meaning that only an entire DPRC can be assigned to a virtual machine. When a container is assigned to a virtual machine, all the objects within that container are assigned to that virtual machine. The DPRC container assigned to the virtual machine is not allowed to change contents (add/remove objects) by the guest. The restriction is set by the host and enforced by the mc hardware. The DPAA2 objects can be directly assigned to the guest. However the MC portals (the memory mapped command interface to the MC) need to be emulated because there are commands that configure the interrupts and the isolation IDs which are virtual in the guest. Example: echo vfio-fsl-mc > /sys/bus/fsl-mc/devices/dprc.2/driver_override echo dprc.2 > /sys/bus/fsl-mc/drivers/vfio-fsl-mc/bind The dprc.2 is bound to the VFIO driver and all the objects within dprc.2 are going to be bound to the VFIO driver. This patch adds the infrastructure for VFIO support for fsl-mc devices. Subsequent patches will add support for binding and secure assigning these devices using VFIO.

vfio: Use kconfig if XX/endif blocks instead of repeating 'depends on' This results in less kconfig wordage and a simpler understanding of the required "depends on" to create the menu structure. The next patch increases the nesting level a lot so this is a nice preparatory simplification.

vfio: Use select for eventfd If VFIO_VIRQFD is required then turn on eventfd automatically. The majority of kconfig users of the EVENTFD use select not depends on.
