This series adds support for the Network Packet ACcelerator (NPAC)
client driver. NPAC is a hardware accelerator for offloading
packet processing tasks from the various hosts on TI's TDA5 family
of SoCs.
This is a minimal reference implementation to establish the framework
for NPAC acceleration support in the Linux kernel. Further details
are in patch 1 which adds documentation for the driver and describes
the system architecture, driver interface, and execution flows.
This RFC is submitted for getting feedback on the initial implementation.
