	In some board or SoC models it is necessary to split a qemu_irq line so that one input can feed multiple outputs. We currently have qemu_irq_split() for this, but that has several deficiencies: * it can only handle splitting a line into two * it unavoidably leaks memory, so it can't be used in a device that can be deleted Implement a qdev device that encapsulates splitting of IRQs, with a configurable number of outputs. (This is in some ways the inverse of the TYPE_OR_IRQ device.)

2016-10-04	generic-loader: Add a generic loader	Alistair Francis	1	-0/+46
	Add a generic loader to QEMU which can be used to load images or set memory values. Internally inside QEMU this is a device. It is a strange device that provides no hardware interface but allows QEMU to monkey patch memory specified when it is created. To be able to do this it has a reset callback that does the memory operations. This device allows the user to monkey patch memory. To be able to do this it needs a backend to manage the datas, the same as other memory-related devices. In this case as the backend is so trivial we have merged it with the frontend instead of creating and maintaining a seperate backend.
