    rapidio: convert switch drivers to modules · 2ec3ba69

    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.
