The VA addresses are coming from rdma-core in this diagram can be
arbitrary, but for 64k pages, the VA may be offset by some number of HCA
4k pages and followed by some number of HCA 4k pages.

The current iterator doesn't account for either the preceding 4k pages or
the following 4k pages.

Fix the issue by extending the ib_block_iter to contain the number of DMA
pages like comment [1] says and by using __sg_advance to start the
iterator at the first live HCA page.

The changes are contained in a parallel set of iterator start and next
functions that are umem aware and specific to umem since there is one user
of the rdma_for_each_block() without umem.

These two fixes prevents the extra pages before and after the user MR
data.

Fix the preceding pages by using the __sq_advance field to start at the
first 4k page containing MR data.

Fix the following pages by saving the number of pgsz blocks in the
iterator state and downcounting on each next.

This fix allows for the elimination of the small page crutch noted in the
Fixes.

=====================================================

If __ethtool_get_link_ksettings() fails, `netdev_speed` is set to the
default value, SPEED_1000. In this case, if `lanes` field of struct
ethtool_link_ksettings is not initialized, an uninitialized value is passed
to ib_get_width_and_speed(). This causes the above issue. This patch
resolves the issue by initializing `lanes` to 0.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a
  size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the
  sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados
  has been doing all this work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major
  infrastructure changes required to support this. For v6.7-rc1 we have
  all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove the sentinel. Both arch and
  driver changes have been on linux-next for a bit less than a month. It
  is worth re-iterating the value:

   - this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
     time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array

   - the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move
     sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files

  For v6.8-rc1 expect removal of all the sentinels and also then the
  unneeded check for procname == NULL.

  The last two patches are fixes recently merged by Krister Johansen
  which allow us again to use softlockup_panic early on boot. This used
  to work but the alias work broke it. This is useful for folks who want
  to detect softlockups super early rather than wait and spend money on
  cloud solutions with nothing but an eventual hung kernel. Although
  this hadn't gone through linux-next it's also a stable fix, so we
  might as well roll through the fixes now"

so there is no need to check before using dev_{put, hold},
remove it to silence the warning:

<title>RDMA/core: Add support to set privileged QKEY parameter</title>

<id>465d6b42f1a3b855c06da1d4d3b09907d261af69</id>
<content type='text'>
Add netlink command that enables/disables privileged QKEY by default.

It is disabled by default, since according to IB spec only privileged
users are allowed to use privileged QKEY.
According to the IB specification rel-1.6, section 3.5.3:
"QKEYs with the most significant bit set are considered controlled
QKEYs, and a HCA does not allow a consumer to arbitrarily specify a
controlled QKEY."

Using rdma tool,
$rdma system set privileged-qkey on

When enabled non-privileged users would be able to use
controlled QKEYs which are considered privileged.

Using rdma tool,
$rdma system set privileged-qkey off

When disabled only privileged users would be able to use
controlled QKEYs.

You can also use the command below to check the parameter state:
$rdma system show
netns shared privileged-qkey off copy-on-fork on

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

Remove sentinel from iwcm_ctl_table and ucma_ctl_table
