xtensa: ISS: add host file-based simulated disk
Simdisk is a block device that maps to a file in the host file system. It is usable for testing in the simulated environment, like xt-sim or QEMU. Device binding to host file may be changed at runtime via proc interface provided the device is not in use. Number of block devices and initial binding to host files is controlled via kernel/module parameters, with defaults specified in the kernel configuration.
