[RFCv2,4/8] mm: vcm: VCM VMM driver added

From: Michal Nazarewicz <m.nazarewicz at samsung.com>

This commit adds a VCM VMM driver that handles kernl virtual
address space mappings.  The VCM context is available as a static
object vcm_vmm.  It is mostly just a wrapper around vmap()
function.

 The following VCM drivers are provided:
 
+** Virtual Memory Manager driver
+
+Virtual Memory Manager driver is available as vcm_vmm and lets one map
+VCM managed physical memory into kernel space.  The calls that this
+driver supports are:
+
+	vcm_make_binding()
+	vcm_destroy_binding()
+
+	vcm_alloc()
+
+	vcm_map()
+	vcm_unmap()
+
+vcm_map() is likely to work with physical memory allocated in context
+of other drivers as well (the only requirement is that "page" field of
+struct vcm_phys_part will be set for all physically contiguous parts
+and that each part's size will be multiply of PAGE_SIZE).
+
 ** Real hardware drivers
 
 There are no real hardware drivers at this time.

 The new version is still lacking a few important features.  Most
 notably, no real hardware MMU has been implemented yet.  This may be
 ported from original Zach's proposal.

-Also, support for VMM is lacking.  This is another thing that can be
-ported from Zach's proposal.
