HFI1 HW specific support for VNIC functionality.
Dynamically allocate a set of contexts for VNIC when the first vnic
port is instantiated. Allocate VNIC contexts from user contexts pool
and return them back to the same pool while freeing up. Set aside
enough MSI-X interrupts for VNIC contexts and assign them when the
contexts are allocated. On the receive side, use an RSM rule to
spread TCP/UDP streams among VNIC contexts.

We are going to split <linux/sched/signal.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.
Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/signal.h> file that just
maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.
Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

The hfi1 driver registers a mmu_notifier callback when /dev/hfi1_* is
opened, and unregisters it when the device is closed. The driver
incorrectly assumes that the close will always happen from the same
context as the open. In particular, closes due to SIGKILL or OOM killer
activity may happen from a different context. In these cases, the wrong
mm is passed to mmu_notifier_unregister(), which causes improper reference
counting for the victim mm, and eventual memory corruption.
Preserve the mm for all open file descriptors and use this mm rather than
current->mm for memory operations for the lifetime of that fd. Note: this
patch leaves 1 use of current->mm in place. This use is removed in a
follow on patch because other functional changes were required prior to
that use being removed.
If registration fails, there is no reason to keep the handler object
around. Free the handler object rather than add it to the list to
prevent any mmu_notifier operations, including unregister, when
registration fails.

The TODO list for the hfi1 driver was completed during 4.6. In addition
other objections raised (which are far beyond what was in the TODO list)
have been addressed as well. It is now time to remove the driver from
staging and into the drivers/infiniband sub-tree.
