NTB: Add Messaging NTB API
Some IDT NTB-capable PCIe-switches have message registers to communicate with
peer devices. This patch adds new NTB API callback methods, which can be used
to utilize these registers functionality:
ntb_msg_count(); - get number of message registers
ntb_msg_inbits(); - get bitfield of inbound message registers status
ntb_msg_outbits(); - get bitfield of outbound message registers status
ntb_msg_read_sts(); - read the inbound and outbound message registers status
ntb_msg_clear_sts(); - clear status bits of message registers
ntb_msg_set_mask(); - mask interrupts raised by status bits of message
registers.
ntb_msg_clear_mask(); - clear interrupts mask bits of message registers
ntb_msg_read(midx, *pidx); - read message register with specified index,
additionally getting peer port index which data received from
ntb_msg_write(midx, pidx); - write data to the specified message register
sending it to the passed peer device connected over a pidx port
ntb_msg_event(); - notify driver context of a new message event
Of course there is hardware which doesn't support Message registers, so
this API is made optional.
