Merge tag 'for-linus-ioctl' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma

Pull rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
 "This is a big pull request.

  Of note is that I'm sending you the new ioctl API for the rdma
  subsystem. We put it up on linux-api@, but didn't get much response.
  The API is complex, but it solves two different problems in one go:

   1) The bi-directional nature of the RDMA file write calls, which
      created the security hole we had to handle (and for which the fix
      is now causing problems for systems in production, we were a bit
      over zealous in the fix and the ability to open a device, then
      fork, then create new queue pairs on the device and use them is
      broken).

   2) The bloat caused by different vendors implementing extensions to
      the base verbs API. Each vendor's hardware is slightly different,
      and the hardware might be suitable for one extension but not
      another.

      By the time we add generic extensions for all the different ways
      that the different hardware can offload things, the API becomes
      bloated. Things like our completion structs have started to exceed
      a cache line in size because of all the elements needed to support
      this. That in turn shows up heavily in the performance graphs with
      a noticable drop in performance on 100Gigabit links as our
      completion structs go from occupying one cache line to 1+.

      This API makes things like the completion structs modular in a
      very similar way to netlink so that your structs can only include
      the items needed for the offloads/features you are actually using
      on a given queue pair. In that way we support everything, but only
      use what we need, and our structs stay smaller.

  The ioctl API is better explained by the posting on linux-api@ than I
  can explain it here, so I'll just leave it at that.

  The rest of the pull request is typical stuff.
