      [SPARC64]: Add LDOM virtual channel driver and VIO device layer. · e53e97ce
      David S. Miller authored
      Virtual devices on Sun Logical Domains are built on top
      of a virtual channel framework.  This, with help of hypervisor
      interfaces, provides a link layer protocol with basic
      handshaking over which virtual device clients and servers
      communicate.
      
      Built on top of this is a VIO device protocol which has it's
      own handshaking and message types.  At this layer attributes
      are exchanged (disk size, network device addresses, etc.)
      descriptor rings are registered, and data transfers are
      triggers and replied to.
