    lynxpoint: Basic configuration of SerialIO devices
    
    This adds configuration of SerialIO devices in the Lynxpoint-LP
    chipset.  This includes DMA, I2C, SPI, UART, and SDIO controllers.
    
    There is assorted magic setup necessary for the devices and
    while it is similar for each device there are subtle differences
    in some register settings.
    
    These devices must be put into "ACPI Mode" in order to take
    advantage of S0ix.  When in ACPI mode the allocated PCI BARs
    must be passed to ACPI so it can be relayed to the OS.  When
    the devices are in ACPI mode BAR0+BAR1 is saved into ACPI NVS
    and then updated and returned when the OS calls _CRS.
    
    Note that is is not entirely complete yet.  We need to update
    the IASL compiler in our build environment to support ACPI 5.0
    in order to be able to pass the FixedDMA entries to the kernel.
    There are also no ACPI methods defined yet to do D0->D3->D0
    transitions for actually entering/exiting S0ix states.
    
    This is hard to test right now because our kernel does not support
    any of these devices in ACPI mode.  I was able to build and test
    the upstream bleeding-edge branch of the linux-pm git tree.  With
    that tree I was able to enumerate and load the driver for the
    DesignWare I2C driver and attempt to probe the I2C bus -- although
    there are no devices attatched.
    
    I am also able to see the resources from ACPI in /proc/iomem get
    reserved properly in the kernel.
