docs: rapidio: convert to ReST
Rename the rapidio documentation files to ReST, add an
index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html
output via the Sphinx build system.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

-RapidIO subsystem mport driver for IDT Tsi721 PCI Express-to-SRIO bridge.
-=========================================================================
-
-I. Overview
-
-This driver implements all currently defined RapidIO mport callback functions.
-It supports maintenance read and write operations, inbound and outbound RapidIO
-doorbells, inbound maintenance port-writes and RapidIO messaging.
-
-To generate SRIO maintenance transactions this driver uses one of Tsi721 DMA
-channels. This mechanism provides access to larger range of hop counts and
-destination IDs without need for changes in outbound window translation.
-
-RapidIO messaging support uses dedicated messaging channels for each mailbox.
-For inbound messages this driver uses destination ID matching to forward messages
-into the corresponding message queue. Messaging callbacks are implemented to be
-fully compatible with RIONET driver (Ethernet over RapidIO messaging services).
-
-1. Module parameters:
-- 'dbg_level' - This parameter allows to control amount of debug information
-        generated by this device driver. This parameter is formed by set of
-        This parameter can be changed bit masks that correspond to the specific
-        functional block.
-        For mask definitions see 'drivers/rapidio/devices/tsi721.h'
-        This parameter can be changed dynamically.
-        Use CONFIG_RAPIDIO_DEBUG=y to enable debug output at the top level.
-
-- 'dma_desc_per_channel' - This parameter defines number of hardware buffer
-        descriptors allocated for each registered Tsi721 DMA channel.
-        Its default value is 128.
-
-- 'dma_txqueue_sz' - DMA transactions queue size. Defines number of pending
-        transaction requests that can be accepted by each DMA channel.
-        Default value is 16.
-
-- 'dma_sel' - DMA channel selection mask. Bitmask that defines which hardware
-        DMA channels (0 ... 6) will be registered with DmaEngine core.
-        If bit is set to 1, the corresponding DMA channel will be registered.
-        DMA channels not selected by this mask will not be used by this device
-        driver. Default value is 0x7f (use all channels).
-
-- 'pcie_mrrs' - override value for PCIe Maximum Read Request Size (MRRS).
-        This parameter gives an ability to override MRRS value set during PCIe
-        configuration process. Tsi721 supports read request sizes up to 4096B.
-        Value for this parameter must be set as defined by PCIe specification:
-        0 = 128B, 1 = 256B, 2 = 512B, 3 = 1024B, 4 = 2048B and 5 = 4096B.
-        Default value is '-1' (= keep platform setting).
-
-- 'mbox_sel' - RIO messaging MBOX selection mask. This is a bitmask that defines
-        messaging MBOXes are managed by this device driver. Mask bits 0 - 3
-        correspond to MBOX0 - MBOX3. MBOX is under driver's control if the
-        corresponding bit is set to '1'. Default value is 0x0f (= all).
-
-II. Known problems
-
-  None.
-
-III. DMA Engine Support
-
-Tsi721 mport driver supports DMA data transfers between local system memory and
-remote RapidIO devices. This functionality is implemented according to SLAVE
-mode API defined by common Linux kernel DMA Engine framework.
-
-Depending on system requirements RapidIO DMA operations can be included/excluded
-by setting CONFIG_RAPIDIO_DMA_ENGINE option. Tsi721 miniport driver uses seven
-out of eight available BDMA channels to support DMA data transfers.
-One BDMA channel is reserved for generation of maintenance read/write requests.
-
-If Tsi721 mport driver have been built with RAPIDIO_DMA_ENGINE support included,
-this driver will accept DMA-specific module parameter:
-  "dma_desc_per_channel" - defines number of hardware buffer descriptors used by
-                           each BDMA channel of Tsi721 (by default - 128).
-
-IV. Version History
-
-  1.1.0 - DMA operations re-worked to support data scatter/gather lists larger
-          than hardware buffer descriptors ring.
-  1.0.0 - Initial driver release.
