Marc-André Lureau 1f57bc12d8 fw_cfg: add a public uapi header
Create a common header file for well-known values and structures to be
shared by the Linux kernel with qemu or other projects.

It is based from qemu/docs/specs/fw_cfg.txt which references
qemu/include/hw/nvram/fw_cfg_keys.h "for the most up-to-date and
authoritative list" & vmcoreinfo.txt. Those files don't have an
explicit license, but qemu/hw/nvram/fw_cfg.c is BSD-license, so
Michael S. Tsirkin suggested to use the same license.

The patch intentionally left out DMA & vmcoreinfo structures &
defines, which are added in the commits making usage of it.

README

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.
