Guangguan Wang b632eb0697 net/smc: send cdc msg inline if qp has sufficient inline space
As cdc msg's length is 44B, cdc msgs can be sent inline in
most rdma devices, which can help reducing sending latency.

In my test environment, which are 2 VMs running on the same
physical host and whose NICs(ConnectX-4Lx) are working on
SR-IOV mode, qperf shows 0.4us-0.7us improvement in latency.

Test command:
server: smc_run taskset -c 1 qperf
client: smc_run taskset -c 1 qperf <server ip> -oo \
		msg_size:1:2K:*2 -t 30 -vu tcp_lat

The results shown below:
msgsize     before       after
1B          11.9 us      11.2 us (-0.7 us)
2B          11.7 us      11.2 us (-0.5 us)

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.
