Roland Dreier 40de2e548c [IB] Have cq_resize() method take an int, not int*
Change the struct ib_device.resize_cq() method to take a plain integer
that holds the new CQ size, rather than a pointer to an integer that
it uses to return the new size.  This makes the interface match the
exported ib_resize_cq() signature, and allows the low-level driver to
update the CQ size with proper locking if necessary.

No in-tree drivers are exporting this method yet.

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.

Roland Dreier 883a99c702 [IB] uverbs: Add a mask of device methods allowed for userspace
Give each device a uverbs_cmd_mask, so that a low-level driver can
control which methods may be called on behalf of userspace.

Roland Dreier 274c089163 [IB] uverbs: Add device-specific ABI version attribute
Add abi_version attribute to uverbs class devices to allow for
ABI versioning of device-specific interfaces.

Roland Dreier 63c47c286d [IB] uverbs: Close some exploitable races
Al Viro pointed out that the current IB userspace verbs interface
allows userspace to cause mischief by closing file descriptors before
we're ready, or issuing the same command twice at the same time.  This
patch closes those races, and fixes other obvious problems such as a
module reference leak.

Some other interface bogosities will require an ABI change to fix
properly, so I'm deferring those fixes until 2.6.15.

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.
