The Qualcomm Cloud AI 100 (AIC100) device is an Artificial Intelligence
accelerator PCIe card. It contains a number of components both in the
SoC and on the card which facilitate running workloads:
QSM: management processor
NSPs: workload compute units
DMA Bridge: dedicated data mover for the workloads
MHI: multiplexed communication channels
DDR: workload storage and memory
The Linux kernel driver for AIC100 is called "QAIC" and is located in the
accel subsystem.

The device specific directory in debugfs does not have "accel". For
example, the documentation says device 0 should have a debugfs entry as
/sys/kernel/debug/accel/accel0/ but in reality the entry is
/sys/kernel/debug/accel/0/
Fix the documentation to match the implementation.

Add an introduction section for the accel subsystem. Most of the
relevant data is in the DRM documentation, so the introduction only
presents the why of the new subsystem, how are the compute accelerators
exposed to user-space and what changes need to be done in a standard
DRM driver to register it to the new accel subsystem.
