TO DO:
General:
-o Support multiple IOP's and tell them about each other
o Provide hidden address space if asked
o Long term message flow control
o PCI IOP's without interrupts are not supported yet
o Push FAIL handling into the core
o DDM control interfaces for module load etc
-o Event handling
+o Add I2O 2.0 support (Deffered to 2.5 kernel)
Block:
-o Real error handler
o Multiple major numbers
o Read ahead and cache handling stuff. Talk to Ingo and people
o Power management
