[RFC] Support for Xsigo core services (xscore)

This patch series adds support for the Xsigo core services
(xscore) by adding a new kernel level driver. These core
services are common to Xsigo virtual drivers and consist
of management as well as control services.

This kernel driver communicates with the Xsigo I/O directors
primarily using Xsigo proprietary protocols built on standard
IBA. IBA communication is accomplished via use of standard MADs
(e.g. SA ServiceRecord and vendor specific queries) and proprietary
RC messages.

This patch series is against Linus' latest 2.6 tree.
