This patch brings basic support for the Linux Driver Model to the NuBus subsystem. For flexibility, the matching of boards with drivers is left up to the drivers. This is also the approach taken by NetBSD. A board may have many functions, and drivers may have to consider many functional resources and board resources in order to match a device. This implementation does not bind drivers to resources (nor does it bind many drivers to the same board). Apple's NuBus declaration ROM design is flexible enough to allow that, but I don't see a need to support it as we don't use the "slot zero" resources (in the main logic board ROM). Eliminate the global nubus_boards linked list by rewriting the procfs board iterator around bus_for_each_dev(). Hence the nubus device refcount can be used to determine the lifespan of board objects.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
