d9703650f4 IB/{rxe,core,rdmavt}: Fix kernel crash for reg MR
This patch fixes below kernel crash on memory registration for rxe
and other transport drivers which has dma_ops extension.

IB/core invokes ib_map_sg_attrs() in generic manner with dma attributes
which is used by mlx5 and mthca adapters.  However in doing so it
ignored honoring dma_ops extension of software based transports for
sg map/unmap operation.  This results in calling dma_map_sg_attrs of
hardware virtual device resulting in crash for null reference.

We extend the core to support sg_map/unmap_attrs and transport drivers
to implement those dma_ops callback functions.

Verified usign perftest applications.

8700e3e7c4 Soft RoCE driver
Soft RoCE (RXE) - The software RoCE driver

ib_rxe implements the RDMA transport and registers to the RDMA core
device as a kernel verbs provider. It also implements the packet IO
layer. On the other hand ib_rxe registers to the Linux netdev stack
as a udp encapsulating protocol, in that case RDMA, for sending and
receiving packets over any Ethernet device.  This yields a RDMA
transport over the UDP/Ethernet network layer forming a RoCEv2
compatible device.

The configuration procedure of the Soft RoCE drivers requires
binding to any existing Ethernet network device. This is done with
/sys interface.

A userspace Soft RoCE library (librxe) provides user applications
the ability to run with Soft RoCE devices.  The use of rxe verbs ins
user space requires the inclusion of librxe as a device specifics
plug-in to libibverbs. librxe is packaged separately.
