Uwe Kleine-König 4d80d59437 UIO: add generic UIO platform driver
This patch adds a generic UIO platform driver. It eliminates the need for a
dedicated kernel module for simple platform devices. Users only need to
implement their irq handler in platform code and fill a struct uio_info
there. This helps avoiding code duplication as UIO platform drivers often
share a lot of common code.

Enable this to allow the userspace driver core code to be
built. This code allows userspace programs easy access to
kernel interrupts and memory locations, allowing some drivers
to be written in userspace. Note that a small kernel driver
is also required for interrupt handling to work properly.
If you don't know what to do here, say N.

Driver for Hilscher CIF DeviceNet and Profibus cards. This
driver requires a userspace component that handles all of the
heavy lifting and can be found at:
http://www.osadl.org/projects/downloads/UIO/user/cif-*
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called uio_cif.

Userspace IO interface to the Cryptography engine found on the
Nias Digital SMX boards. These will be available from Q4 2008
from http://www.niasdigital.com. The userspace part of this
driver will be released under the GPL at the same time as the
hardware and will be able to be downloaded from the same site.
If you compile this as a module, it will be called uio_smx.
