* Decide if multiple root fsl-mc buses will be supported per Linux instance,
and if so add support for this.
* Add at least one device driver for a DPAA2 object (child device of the
fsl-mc bus). Most likely candidate for this is adding DPAA2 Ethernet
driver support, which depends on drivers for several objects: DPNI,
DPIO, DPMAC. Other pre-requisites include:
* interrupt support. for meaningful driver support we need
interrupts, and thus need message interrupt support by the bus
driver.
-Note: this has dependencies on generic MSI support work
in process upstream, see [1] and [2].
* Management Complex (MC) command serialization. locking mechanisms
are needed by drivers to serialize commands sent to the MC, including
from atomic context.
* MC firmware uprev. The MC firmware upon which the fsl-mc
bus driver and DPAA2 object drivers are based is continuing
to evolve, so minor updates are needed to keep in sync with binary
interface changes to the MC.
* Cleanup
