ARC: Hostlink Pseudo-Driver for Metaware Debugger
This allows ARC Target to do I/O to host in absence of any peripherals whatsoever, assisted by Metaware Hostlink facility. Further we have a FUSE based filesystem which makes us mount/access host filesystem on target and do fops. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
