UIO: Add the User IO core code
This interface allows the ability to write the majority of a driver in userspace with only a very small shell of a driver in the kernel itself. It uses a char device and sysfs to interact with a userspace process to process interrupts and control memory accesses. See the docbook documentation for more details on how to use this interface.
