The generic UIO platform device driver should be given a unique driver ID and
not just "uio". This is especially important since we now have a similar driver
named uio_pdrv_genirq. Currently, there's no user of this driver in the
mainline kernel.

This patch adds a generic UIO platform driver. It eliminates the need for a
dedicated kernel module for simple platform devices. Users only need to
implement their irq handler in platform code and fill a struct uio_info
there. This helps avoiding code duplication as UIO platform drivers often
share a lot of common code.
