Last time you asked me whether it was necessary to have this in staging. For this module I (think I) followed the kernel coding style and tried to cover most of the SubmitChecklist (if applicable). If I should reconsider that is fine by me.
The request for supporting amba axi scanning was raised by Jonas Gorski on Mon 17 Jan 2011 "Merging SSB and HND/AI support" on linux-wireless list. He was looking for this in the context of SoC router chips offering core discovery by so-called DMP plugin which ARM provides for SoC's using the AMBA AXI interconnect.
