Shay Drory cb1aa1da04 RDMA/mlx4: Do not map the core_clock page to user space unless enabled
commit 404e5a1269 upstream.

Currently when mlx4 maps the hca_core_clock page to the user space there
are read-modifiable registers, one of which is semaphore, on this page as
well as the clock counter. If user reads the wrong offset, it can modify
the semaphore and hang the device.

Do not map the hca_core_clock page to the user space unless the device has
been put in a backwards compatibility mode to support this feature.

After this patch, mlx4 core_clock won't be mapped to user space on the
majority of existing devices and the uverbs device time feature in
ibv_query_rt_values_ex() will be disabled.

Fixes: 52033cfb5a ("IB/mlx4: Add mmap call to map the hardware clock")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
