Commit 313abe55 ("mlx4_core: For 64-bit systems, vmap() kernel queue
buffers") caused this to pop up on powerpc allyesconfig, looks like a
missing include file:

Now that struct mlx4_buf.u is a struct instead of a union because of
the vmap() changes, there's no point in having a struct at all.  So
move .direct and .page_list directly into struct mlx4_buf and get rid
of a bunch of unnecessary ".u"s.

Since kernel virtual memory is not a problem on 64-bit systems, there
is no reason to use our own 2-layer page mapping scheme for large
kernel queue buffers on such systems.  Instead, map the page list to a
single virtually contiguous buffer with vmap(), so that can we access
buffer memory via direct indexing.

When mlx4_buf_free() is called from the error path of
mlx4_buf_alloc(), it may be passed a buffer structure that does not
have all pages filled in.  Add a check for NULL to mlx4_buf_free() so
we avoid passing NULL to dma_free_coherent() (which will crash).

Set last allocated object to the object after the one just allocated
before ORing in the extra top bits.  Also handle the case where this
wraps around.

<title>IB/mlx4: Add a driver Mellanox ConnectX InfiniBand adapters</title>

<id>225c7b1feef1b41170f7037a5b10a65cd8a42c54</id>
<content type='text'>
Add an InfiniBand driver for Mellanox ConnectX adapters.  Because
these adapters can also be used as ethernet NICs and Fibre Channel 
HBAs, the driver is split into two modules: 
 
  mlx4_core: Handles low-level things like device initialization and 
    processing firmware commands.  Also controls resource allocation 
    so that the InfiniBand, ethernet and FC functions can share a 
    device without stepping on each other. 
 
  mlx4_ib: Handles InfiniBand-specific things; plugs into the 
    InfiniBand midlayer.
