This patch set provides backward compatibility for older kernels
that does not support mdev. 

If mdev feature is not available, following actions are taken:
- The library will disable mdev features and will return -NOENT
- The mdev commands would print an error message and exit
- The test program would skip mdev tests

Ramesh Thomas (6):
  accel-config: Combine symbols in same release into single group
  accel-config: Allow other functionality if mdev support unavailable
  accel-config: Add API to check for mdev support availability
  accel-config: Add check for mdev support availability in commands
  accel-config: Make idxd_mdev module optional
  accel-config: Disable mdev operations if mdev support unavailable
