[dcmf] Lockless ROMIO driver

[Joseph Ratterman]

This one is mostly for external contributors.

Before we can begin to take and use any patches, we need to have a 
contributor agreement signed by the author.  We want to ensure that the 
DCMF community follows the best practices for avoiding copyright/licensing 
issues, so this is important to all people using the DCMF source code.  We 
plan to get the final agreement information out on the mail list and wiki 
later today--we are currently wrapping up a few loose ends.

After we get this going, we will have to keep a list of signatories.  It 
seems that there are a few ways to record these, and I would like people 
to comment.
+ Keep an internal list at IBM (or the future maintainer).  This ensures 
privacy.
+ Keep a list on the Wiki.  Since changes are public and pages can be 
protected.  This is more open, and could also be included with the next:
+ Maintain a "developers" file inside the git repository.  This will be 
more accessible when we get a git server, and it is even more secure than 
the wiki list.

Thanks,
Joe Ratterman

[dcmf] Lockless ROMIO driver






These patches re-introduce ad_ufs to ROMIO, but do so in a lock-free way. 
This
is my first git experience, so sorry for the messy subject lines.
