Hal Rosenstock 618a3c03fc IB/mad: RMPP support for additional classes
Add RMPP support for additional management classes that support it.
Also, validate RMPP is consistent with management class specified.

Jack Morgenstein f36e1793e2 IB/umad: Add support for large RMPP transfers
Add support for sending and receiving large RMPP transfers.  The old
code supports transfers only as large as a single contiguous kernel
memory allocation.  This patch uses linked list of memory buffers when
sending and receiving data to avoid needing contiguous pages for
larger transfers.

  Receive side: copy the arriving MADs in chunks instead of coalescing
  to one large buffer in kernel space.

  Send side: split a multipacket MAD buffer to a list of segments,
  (multipacket_list) and send these using a gather list of size 2.
  Also, save pointer to last sent segment, and retrieve requested
  segments by walking list starting at last sent segment. Finally,
  save pointer to last-acked segment.  When retrying, retrieve
  segments for resending relative to this pointer.  When updating last
  ack, start at this pointer.

Sean Hefty 34816ad98e [IB] Fix MAD layer DMA mappings to avoid touching data buffer once mapped
The MAD layer was violating the DMA API by touching data buffers used
for sends after the DMA mapping was done.  This causes problems on
non-cache-coherent architectures, because the device doing DMA won't
see updates to the payload buffers that exist only in the CPU cache.

Fix this by having all MAD consumers use ib_create_send_mad() to
allocate their send buffers, and moving the DMA mapping into the MAD
layer so it can be done just before calling send (and after any
modifications of the send buffer by the MAD layer).

Tested on a non-cache-coherent PowerPC 440SPe system.

Al Viro dd0fc66fb3 [PATCH] gfp flags annotations - part 1
- added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t;

 - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly
   the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change
   generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with
   typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

Roland Dreier 2e9f7cb786 [PATCH] IB: Add struct for ClassPortInfo
Add structure definition for ClassPortInfo format.  This is
needed for (at least) handling CM redirects.

Roland Dreier a4d61e8480 [PATCH] IB: move include files to include/rdma
Move the InfiniBand headers from drivers/infiniband/include to include/rdma.
This allows InfiniBand-using code to live elsewhere, and lets us remove the
ugly EXTRA_CFLAGS include path from the InfiniBand Makefiles.
