The idea is that we want to get rid of the in/out/readb/writeb callbacks from
the machvec and replace that with simple inline read and write operations to
memory. Fast and simple for most hardware devices (think pci).
Some devices require special treatment though - like 16-bit only CF devices -
so we need to have some method to hook in callbacks.
This patch makes it possible to add a per-device trap generating filter. This
way we can get maximum performance of sane hardware - which doesn't need this
filter - and crappy hardware works but gets punished by a performance hit.
V2 changes things around a bit and replaces io access callbacks with a
simple minimum_bus_width value. In the future we can add stride as well.

This introduces a few changes in the way that the I/O routines are defined on
SH, specifically so that things like the iomap API properly wrap through the
machvec for board-specific quirks.
In addition to this, the old p3_ioremap() work is converted to a more generic
__ioremap() that will map through the PMB if it's available, or fall back on
page tables for everything else.
An alpha-like IO_CONCAT is also added so we can start to clean up the
board-specific io.h mess, which will be handled in board update patches..

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
