Michael Albaugh 4330e4dad7 IB/ipath: Prevent link-recovery code from negating admin disable
The link can be put in LINKDOWN_DISABLE state either locally or via a
MAD.  However, the link-recovery code will take it out of that state as
a side-effect of attempts to clear SerDes/XGXS issues.

We add a flag to indicate "link is down on purpose, leave it alone."

John Gregor 58411d1c01 IB/ipath: Head of Line blocking vs forward progress of user apps
There's a conflict between our need to quiesce PSM-based applications
to avoid HoL blocking when the IB link goes down and the apps' desire
to remain running so that their quiescence timout mechanism can keep
running.

The compromise is to STOP the processes for a fixed period of time and
then alternate between CONT and STOP until the link is again active.

If there are poor interactions with subnet manager configuration at a
given site, the interval can be adjusted via a module paramter.

Bryan O'Sullivan 8ec1077b35 IB/ipath: Change packet problems vs chip errors handling and reporting
Some types of packet errors are moderately common with longer IB
cables and large clusters, and are not reported with prints by other
IB HCA drivers.  This suppresses those messages unless the new
__IPATH_ERRPKTDBG bit is set in ipath_debug.  Reporting of temporarily
disabled frequent error interrupts was also made clearer

We also distinguish between chip errors, and bad packets sent or
received in the wording of the messages.

Bryan O'Sullivan 0fd41363e0 IB/ipath: remove stale references to userspace SMA
When we first submitted a userspace subnet management agent, it was
rejected, so we left it out of the final driver submission.  This patch
removes a number of vestigial references to it.

Bryan O'Sullivan d41d3aeb76 IB/ipath: core driver header files
ipath_common.h and ips_common.h contain definitions shared between
userspace and the kernel.

ipath_kernel.h is the core driver header file.

ipath_debug.h contains mask values used for controlling driver debugging.

ipath_registers.h contains bitmask definitions used in chip registers.
