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.

tristate "Intel MIC Bus Driver"
depends on 64BIT && PCI && X86 && X86_DEV_DMA_OPS
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
