[meta-intel] [master & fido][PATCH 0/4] zlib-qat module for riverforest platforms

[Anuj Mittal]

Dear Maintainer(s), 

These patches provide the support for zlib-qat module on top of Intel QAT.

These patches replace the earlier ones sent by me for fido:
[meta-intel][fido][PATCH 0/4] zlib-qat module for riverforest platforms 

These have now been tested with master too and should apply cleanly for both 
master and fido.

This module can be used to accelerate data compression algorithm in the zlib 
software library via the Intel QuickAssist Technology.

More information on QAT is available at:
https://01.org/packet-processing/intel%C2%AE-quickassist-technology-drivers-and-patches

Tests have been run to ensure software ingredients have been
integrated:
a/ Kernel module loads ok & there are no errors.
b/ comptestapp user space app gives satisfactory results.

Image and packages-split looks satisfactory.

The first patch has been picked from dizzy (with a change to makefile patch 
to ensure it builds on fido/master). Subsequent patches modify parts of the recipe with the 
intention of improving upon some parts of it.

These patches depend on qat16 on fido:
[meta-intel][master & fido][PATCH 0/1] QAT recipe for Intel Riverforest 

Please consider reviewing these zlib patches in case you find the qat16 patches to be
acceptable.

Please commit if these look okay.

Thank you.
