Abstract
--------

The objective of this series is introducing CCW IDA (indirect data
access) support to our virtual channel subsystem implementation. Briefly
CCW IDA can be thought of as a kind of a scatter gather support for a
single CCW. If certain flags are set, the cda is to be interpreted as an
address to a list which in turn holds further addresses designating the
actual data.  Thus the scheme which we are currently using for accessing
CCW payload does not work in general case. Currently there is no
immediate need for proper IDA handling (no use case), but since it IDA is
a non-optional part of the architecture, the only way towards AR
compliance is actually implementing IDA.

Testing
-------

On request the things meant for testing from v1 were factored out into a
separate series (requested by Connie). Please look for the series  'tests
for CCW IDA' (see [1]) or use the stuff form v1.

Changelog
---------

v2 --> v3:
* added maximum data address checking (see patch #4) (Dong Jia)
  To not mix converting to the new infrastructure and changing
  behavior, this is done after the conversion. For IDA the same
  (on both IDAL and data  level) is now a part of the respective
  patch (was missing in v2).
* even less nits, and improved aesthetics (mostly Dong Jia)
v1 --> v2:
* factored out the stuff added only for testing
* use g_assert instead of assert
* fixed a lot's of typos
* removed some TODOs addressed by another series of mine
* refactored ccw_dstream_rw_ida (structured programming)
* done some rewording of commit message #3
