Subject: [PATCH V5 0/4] add pvpanic driver framework

QEMU community requires additional PCI devices to simulate PVPANIC
devices so that some architectures can not occupy precious less than 4G
of memory space.
Previously, I added PCI driver directly to the original version of the driver,
which made the whole driver file look a bit cluttered. So Andy Shevchenko suggests:
"I would recommend to split it in a way how it's done for ChipIdea USB driver,
for example. (drivers/usb/chipidea if I'm not mistaken)".

v4 ---> v5 : Merge some patches to one for avoiding bisectability issues.
             Make sure that just one pvpanic device is working.

v3 ---> v4 : add help text info in Konfig.
             adjust structure definition position.
v2 ---> v3 : add change infomation.

v1 ---> v2 : add patch 0000 to descript the whole patch series.
             modify text infomation.
             modify "SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-or-later"
             to "SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+"
