Add driver support for a 2 port PCI IOC3-based serial card on Altix boxes:
This is a re-submission. On the original submission I was asked to
organize the code so that the MIPS ioc3 ethernet and serial parts could be
used with this driver. Stanislaw Skowronek was kind enough to provide the
shim layer for this - thanks Stanislaw. This patch includes the shim layer
and the Altix PCI ioc3 serial driver. The MIPS merged ioc3 ethernet and
serial support is forthcoming.

The SGI IOC4 I/O controller chip drivers are currently all configured by
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SGIIOC4. This is undesirable as not all IOC4 hardware features
are needed by all systems.
This patch adds two configuration variables, CONFIG_SGI_IOC4 for core IOC4
driver support (see patch 1/3 in this series for further explanation) and
CONFIG_SERIAL_SGI_IOC4 to independently enable serial port support.

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!
