virtual-bus: Implementation of Virtual Bus

This is the initial implementation of the Virtual Bus,
virtbus_device and virtbus_driver.  The virtual bus is
a software based bus intended to support lightweight
devices and drivers and provide matching between them
and probing of the registered drivers.

Files added:
	drivers/bus/virtual_bus.c
	include/linux/virtual_bus.h
	Documentation/driver-api/virtual_bus.rst

The primary purpose of the virual bus is to provide
matching services and to pass the data pointer
contained in the virtbus_device to the virtbus_driver
during its probe call.  This will allow two separate
kernel objects to match up and start communication.

The bus will support probe/remove shutdown and
suspend/resume callbacks.

Kconfig and Makefile alterations are included

+===============================
+Virtual Bus Devices and Drivers
+===============================
+
+See <linux/virtual_bus.h> for the models for virtbus_device and virtbus_driver.
+This bus is meant to be a lightweight software based bus to attach generic
+devices and drivers to so that a chunk of data can be passed between them.
+
+One use case example is an rdma driver needing to connect with several
+different types of PCI LAN devices to be able to request resources from
+them (queue sets).  Each LAN driver that supports rdma will register a
+virtbus_device on the virtual bus for each physical function.  The rdma
+driver will register as a virtbus_driver on the virtual bus to be
+matched up with multiple virtbus_devices and receive a pointer to a
+struct containing the callbacks that the PCI LAN drivers support for
+registering with them.

+
+Virtbus devices
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Virtbus_devices are lightweight objects that support the minimal device
+functionality.  Devices will accept a name, and then an automatically
+generated index is concatenated onto it for the virtbus_device->name.
+
+The memory backing the "void *data" element of the virtbus_device is
+expected to be allocated and freed outside the context of the bus
+operations.  This memory is also expected to remain viable for the
+duration of the time that the virtbus_device is registered to the
+virtual bus. (e.g. from before the virtbus_device_add until after
+the paired virtbus_dev_del).
+
+The provided API for virtbus_dev_alloc is an efficient way of allocating
+the memory for the virtbus_device (except for the data element) and
+automatically freeing it when the device is removed from the bus.
+
+Virtbus drivers
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Virtbus drivers register with the virtual bus to be matched with virtbus
+devices.  They expect to be registered with a probe and remove callback,
+and also support shutdown, suspend, and resume callbacks.  They otherwise
+follow the standard driver behavior of having discovery and enumeration
+handled in the bus infrastructure.
+
+Virtbus drivers register themselves with the API entry point virtbus_drv_reg
+and unregister with virtbus_drv_unreg.
+
+Device Enumeration
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Enumeration is handled automatically by the bus infrastructure via the
+ida_simple methods.
+
+Device naming and driver binding
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The virtbus_device.dev.name is the canonical name for the device. It is
+built from two other parts:
+
+        - virtbus_device.name (also used for matching).
+        - virtbus_device.id (generated automatically from ida_simple calls)
+
+This allows for multiple virtbus_devices with the same name, which will all
+be matched to the same virtbus_driver. Driver binding is performed by the
+driver core, invoking driver probe() after finding a match between device and driver.
+
+Virtual Bus Structs
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

+        .init_name      = "virtbus",

+        .suspend        = virtbus_suspend,
+        .resume         = virtbus_resume,
+};
