misc: mic: SCIF memory registration and unregistration
This patch implements the SCIF APIs required to pin and unpin pages. SCIF registration locks down the pages. It then sends a remote window allocation request to the peer. Once the peer has allocated memory, the local SCIF endpoint copies the pinned page information to the peer and notifies the peer once the copy has complete. The peer upon receipt of the registration notification adds the new remote window to its list. At this point the window page information is available on both self and remote nodes so that they can start performing SCIF DMAs, CPU copies and fences. The unregistration API tears down the registration at both self and remote nodes.
