Add a new driver to support the Intel Non-Transparent Bridge(NTB). The NTB allows you to connect two systems with this device using a PCI-e link. The driver is made of two modules: - ntb_hw which is a basic hardware abstraction layer for the device. - if_ntb which implements the ntb network device and the communication protocol. The driver is limited at the moment to CPU memcpy instead of using DMA, and only Back-to-Back mode is supported. Also the network device isn't full featured yet. These changes will be coming soon. The DMA change will also bring in the ioat driver from the project branch it is on now. This is an initial port of the GPL/BSD Linux driver contributed by Jon Mason from Intel. Any bugs are my contributions. Sponsored by: Intel Reviewed by: jimharris, joel (man page only) Approved by: jimharris (mentor)

# $FreeBSD$
NewBus'ify NTB subsystem. This follows NTB subsystem modularization in Linux, tuning it to FreeBSD native NewBus interfaces. This change allows to support different types of hardware with different drivers, support multiple NTB instances in a system, ntb_transport module use for needs other then if_ntb, etc. Sponsored by: iXsystems, Inc.
