This patch removes the MIC drivers from the kernel tree
since the corresponding devices have been discontinued.

Removing the dma and char-misc changes in one patch and
merging via the char-misc tree is best to avoid any
potential build breakage.

Split out all the bits that are purely for dma_map_ops implementations
and related code into a new &lt;linux/dma-map-ops.h&gt; header so that they
don't get pulled into all the drivers.  That also means the architecture
specific &lt;asm/dma-mapping.h&gt; is not pulled in by &lt;linux/dma-mapping.h&gt;
any more, which leads to a missing includes that were pulled in by the
x86 or arm versions in a few not overly portable drivers.

Some architectures (like MIPS) implement ioremap as a macro, and this
leads to conflicts with the ioremap function pointer in various mic
structures.

 drivers/misc/mic/vop/vop_vringh.c:
   In function 'vop_virtio_init_post':
 drivers/misc/mic/vop/vop_vringh.c:86:13:
   error: macro "ioremap" passed 3 arguments, but takes just 2

Rename ioremap to remap to fix this.  Likewise for iounmap.

The Virtio Over PCIe (VOP) bus abstracts the low level hardware
details like interrupts and mapping remote memory so that the same VOP
driver can work without changes with different MIC host or card
drivers as long as the hardware bus operations are implemented. The
VOP driver registers itself on the VOP bus. The base PCIe drivers
implement the bus ops and register VOP devices on the bus, resulting
in the VOP driver being probed with the VOP devices. This allows the
VOP functionality to be shared between multiple generations of Intel
MIC products.
