This patchset introduces a new Linux Kernel Driver, versal-pci for AMD
Alevo Versal based PCIe Card. 

The AMD Alevo Versal based PCIe Card, including V70 and RAVE, is the first
Alevo production card leveraging AMD XDNA architecture with AI Engines. It
is designed for AI inference efficiency and is tuned for video analytics
and natural language processing applications [1].

This versal-pci driver provides services, including:
  - leveraging linux firmware and configfs framework to download management
    firmware
  - communicate with firmware running on the PCIe Card
  - monitor device health

The driver is licensed under GPL-2.0.

The firmwares are distributed as a closed binary, delivered by AMD. Please
see [1] for more information.

accelerator drivers should be under drivers/accel/, please work with the
maintainers there to get it reviewed properly in that location.

Hi Greg,

We will work with drivers/accel community and send updated patches to 
them for further review.

Thank you so much for taking your time guiding us the right direction.

Thanks,
David
