[Wesley.Sheng]

From: Wesley Sheng <Wesley.Sheng@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

1.add pre-requisites for NTB driver
2.misc updates
  change ntb hardware driver name to ntb_hw_switchtec
  update the description of 2 partitions limit
  add reference to Linux Documentation/ntb.txt
  add use of term 'Command ID'
  add use of term 'Command Return Value'
  add a missing ')'
