Christoph Hellwig 14d3a3b249 IB: add a proper completion queue abstraction
This adds an abstraction that allows ULPs to simply pass a completion
object and completion callback with each submitted WR and let the RDMA
core handle the nitty gritty details of how to handle completion
interrupts and poll the CQ.

In detail there is a new ib_cqe structure which just contains the
completion callback, and which can be used to get at the containing
object using container_of.  It is pointed to by the WR and WC as an
alternative to the wr_id field, similar to how many ULPs already use
the field to store a pointer using casts.

A driver using the new completion callbacks allocates it's CQs using
the new ib_create_cq API, which in addition to the number of CQEs and
the completion vectors also takes a mode on how we poll for CQEs.
Three modes are available: direct for drivers that never take CQ
interrupts and just poll for them, softirq to poll from softirq context
using the to be renamed blk-iopoll infrastructure which takes care of
rearming and budgeting, or a workqueue for consumer who want to be
called from user context.

Thanks a lot to Sagi Grimberg who helped reviewing the API, wrote
the current version of the workqueue code because my two previous
attempts sucked too much and converted the iSER initiator to the new
API.

Core support for InfiniBand (IB). Make sure to also select
any protocols you wish to use as well as drivers for your
InfiniBand hardware.

---help---
Userspace InfiniBand Management Datagram (MAD) support. This
is the kernel side of the userspace MAD support, which allows
userspace processes to send and receive MADs. You will also
need libibumad from <http://www.openfabrics.org/downloads/management/>.
config INFINIBAND_USER_ACCESS
tristate "InfiniBand userspace access (verbs and CM)"
select ANON_INODES
---help---
Userspace InfiniBand access support. This enables the
kernel side of userspace verbs and the userspace
communication manager (CM). This allows userspace processes
to set up connections and directly access InfiniBand
hardware for fast-path operations. You will also need
libibverbs, libibcm and a hardware driver library from
<http://www.openfabrics.org/git/>.

On demand paging support for the InfiniBand subsystem.
Together with driver support this allows registration of
memory regions without pinning their pages, fetching the
pages on demand instead.
