misc: mic: Coprocessor State Management (COSM) driver
The COSM driver allows boot, shutdown and reset of Intel MIC devices via sysfs. This functionality was previously present in the Intel MIC host driver but has now been taken out into a separate driver so that it can be shared between multiple generations of Intel MIC products. The sysfs kernel ABI used by the COSM driver is the same as that defined originally for the MIC host driver in Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-mic.txt. The COSM driver also contains support for dumping the MIC card log_buf and doing a "force reset" for the card via debugfs. The OSPM support present in the MIC host driver has now largely been moved to user space and only a small required OSPM functionality is now present in the driver.
