This patch is a preparation for adding another related driver, XillyUSB.
In order to share some code between the existing Xillybus driver and the
one to be added, some functions are moved to xillybus_class.c
XILLYBUS_CLASS is added to Kconfig and is common to all drivers in this
group. The relation with the existing XILLYBUS symbol is "select" rather
than "depends on" XILLYBUS_CLASS, or else "make olddefconfig" will silently
turn off XILLYBUS, which is currently enabled in several distributions.
XILLYBUS_CLASS doesn't depend on anything else, hence using it with
"select" poses no risk for a broken configuration.
After the future addition of the XillyUSB module, the tree of symbols
will be as follows:
XILLYBUS_CLASS --+-- XILLYBUS --+-- XILLYBUS_PCIE
| |
| +-- XILLYBUS_OF
|
+-- XILLYUSB
XILLYBUS is for drivers based upon memory registers + DMA-based interfaces,
and it's combined with XILLYBUS_PCIE and/or XILLYBUS_OF.
XILLYUSB is for the USB variant only.
Or a more detailed, bottom-up outline:
* CONFIG_XILLYBUS_PCIE -> xillybus_pcie.c: Functions related to PCIe.
* CONFIG_XILLYBUS_OF -> xillybus_of.c: Functions related to Xillybus as a
peripheral on an FPGA / Processor combo chip.
* CONFIG_XILLYBUS -> xillybus_core.c: Functions that are common to the two
above, mainly access to the peripheral with memory-mapped registers and
DMA.
* CONFIG_XILLYUSB -> xillyusb.c: The driver for the USB variant, accesses
the peripheral through the USB framework.
* CONFIG_XILLYBUS_CLASS -> xillybus_class.c: The new module, which contains
the class and API parts that would otherwise appear both in
xillybus_core.c and xillyusb.c. Contains utility functions for the two
latter.
And since I'm at it, comments on the module names are added in the
Kconfig's help part.
The functions are exported with the non-GPL EXPORT_SYMBOL (a matter of
taste).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
