Intel MIC Card Driver for X100 family.
This patch does the following: a) Initializes the Intel MIC X100 platform device and driver. b) Sets up support to handle shutdown requests from the host. c) Maps the device page after obtaining the device page address from the scratchpad registers updated by the host. d) Informs the host upon a card crash by registering a panic notifier. e) Informs the host upon a poweroff/halt event.

+ This enables card driver support for the Intel Many Integrated
+ Core (MIC) device family. The card driver communicates shutdown/
+ crash events to the host and allows registration/configuration of
+ virtio devices. Intel MIC X100 devices are currently supported.
+
+ If you are building a card kernel for an Intel MIC device then
+ say M (recommended) or Y, else say N. If unsure say N.
