[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.

+        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.
