David Rientjes 6a108a14fa kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel.  A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.

Albert Herranz 24ea602e18 ssb: Implement SDIO host bus support
Add support for communicating with a Sonics Silicon Backplane through a
SDIO interface, as found in the Nintendo Wii WLAN daughter card.

The Nintendo Wii WLAN card includes a custom Broadcom 4318 chip with
a SDIO host interface.

If the target system cannot support SSB, then don't show the menu option as
it'll simply be an empty submenu.

Michael Buesch f225763a7d ssb, b43, b43legacy, b44: Rewrite SSB DMA API
This is a rewrite of the DMA API for SSB devices.
This is needed, because the old (non-existing) "API" made too many bad
assumptions on the API of the host-bus (PCI).
This introduces an almost complete SSB-DMA-API that maps to the lowlevel
bus-API based on the bustype.

Michael Buesch d625a29ba6 ssb: Add support for block-I/O
This adds support for block based I/O to SSB.
This is needed in order to efficiently support PIO data
transfers to the card.
The block-I/O support is only compiled, if it's selected by the
weird driver that needs it. So there's no overhead for sane devices.

Michael Buesch aab547ce0d ssb: Add Gigabit Ethernet driver
This adds the Gigabit Ethernet driver for the SSB
Gigabit Ethernet core. This driver actually is a frontend to
the Tigon3 driver. So the real work is done by tg3.
This device is used in the Linksys WRT350N.

Alexey Zaytsev c7084535c9 Use a separate config option for the b43 pci to ssb bridge.
The bridge code was unnecessary enabled by the b44
driver, but it prevents the bcm43xx driver from
being loaded, as the bridge claims the same pci ids.

Now we enable the birdge only if the b43{legacy}
drivers are selected.

Michael Buesch 61e115a56d [SSB]: add Sonics Silicon Backplane bus support
SSB is an SoC bus used in a number of embedded devices.  The most
well-known of these devices is probably the Linksys WRT54G, but there
are others as well.  The bus is also used internally on the BCM43xx
and BCM44xx devices from Broadcom.

This patch also includes support for SSB ID tables in modules, so
that SSB drivers can be loaded automatically.
