rapidio: convert switch drivers to modules

Rework RapidIO switch drivers to add an option to build them as loadable
kernel modules.

This patch removes RapidIO-specific vmlinux section and converts switch
drivers to be compatible with LDM driver registration method. To simplify
registration of device-specific callback routines this patch introduces
rio_switch_ops data structure. The sw_sysfs() callback is removed from
the list of device-specific operations because under the new structure its
functions can be handled by switch driver's probe() and remove() routines.

If a specific switch device driver is not loaded the RapidIO subsystem
core will use default standard-based operations to configure a switch.
Because the current implementation of RapidIO enumeration/discovery method
relies on availability of device-specific operations for error management,
switch device drivers must be loaded before the RapidIO
enumeration/discovery starts.

This patch also moves several common routines from enumeration/discovery
module into the RapidIO core code to make switch-specific operations
accessible to all components of RapidIO subsystem.

rapidio: make enumeration/discovery configurable

rapidio: make enumeration/discovery configurable

Systems that use RapidIO fabric may need to implement their own
enumeration and discovery methods which are better suitable for needs of
a target application.

The following set of patches is intended to simplify process of
introduction of new RapidIO fabric enumeration/discovery methods.

The first patch offers ability to add new RapidIO enumeration/discovery
methods using kernel configuration options. This new configuration
option mechanism allows to select statically linked or modular
enumeration/discovery method(s) from the list of existing methods or use
external module(s).

This patch also updates the currently existing enumeration/discovery
code to be used as a statically linked or modular method.

The corresponding configuration option is named "Basic
enumeration/discovery" method. This is the only one configuration
option available today but new methods are expected to be introduced
after adoption of provided patches.

The second patch address a long time complaint of RapidIO subsystem
users regarding fabric enumeration/discovery start sequence. Existing
implementation offers only a boot-time enumeration/discovery start which
requires synchronized boot of all endpoints in RapidIO network. While
it works for small closed configurations with limited number of
endpoints, using this approach in systems with large number of endpoints
is quite challenging.

To eliminate requirement for synchronized start the second patch
introduces RapidIO enumeration/discovery start from user space.

For compatibility with the existing RapidIO subsystem implementation,
automatic boot time enumeration/discovery start can be configured in by
specifying "rio-scan.scan=1" command line parameter if statically linked
basic enumeration method is selected.

This patch:

Rework to implement RapidIO enumeration/discovery method selection
combined with ability to use enumeration/discovery as a kernel module.

This patch adds ability to introduce new RapidIO enumeration/discovery
methods using kernel configuration options. Configuration option
mechanism allows to select statically linked or modular
enumeration/discovery method from the list of existing methods or use
external modules. If a modular enumeration/discovery is selected each
RapidIO mport device can have its own method attached to it.

The existing enumeration/discovery code was updated to be used as
statically linked or modular method. This configuration option is named
"Basic enumeration/discovery" method.

Several common routines have been moved from rio-scan.c to make them
available to other enumeration methods and reduce number of exported
symbols.
