If the allocation of elem fails, it is not sufficient to simply check
for NULL and return. We need to also put our reference on the pool or
else we will leave the pool with a permanent ref count and we will never
be able to free it.

The allocation for elem may fail (especially because we're using
GFP_ATOMIC) so best to check for a null return. This fixes a potential
null pointer dereference when assigning elem->pool.

Since index values equal to or above 'range' can trigger memory
corruption, complain if index >= range.

The prints after [k|v][m|z|c]alloc() functions are not needed,
because in case of failure, allocator will print their internal
error prints anyway.

Soft RoCE (RXE) - The software RoCE driver
ib_rxe implements the RDMA transport and registers to the RDMA core
device as a kernel verbs provider. It also implements the packet IO
layer. On the other hand ib_rxe registers to the Linux netdev stack
as a udp encapsulating protocol, in that case RDMA, for sending and
receiving packets over any Ethernet device. This yields a RDMA
transport over the UDP/Ethernet network layer forming a RoCEv2
compatible device.
The configuration procedure of the Soft RoCE drivers requires
binding to any existing Ethernet network device. This is done with
/sys interface.
A userspace Soft RoCE library (librxe) provides user applications
the ability to run with Soft RoCE devices. The use of rxe verbs ins
user space requires the inclusion of librxe as a device specifics
plug-in to libibverbs. librxe is packaged separately.
