Pull rdma updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
 "A more active cycle than most of the recent past, with a few large,
  long discussed works this time.

  The RNBD block driver has been posted for nearly two years now, and
  flowing through RDMA due to it also introducing a new ULP.

  The removal of FMR has been a recurring discussion theme for a long
  time.

  And the usual smattering of features and bug fixes.

  Summary:

   - Various small driver bugs fixes in rxe, mlx5, hfi1, and efa

   - Continuing driver cleanups in bnxt_re, hns

   - Big cleanup of mlx5 QP creation flows

   - More consistent use of src port and flow label when LAG is used and
     a mlx5 implementation

   - Additional set of cleanups for IB CM

   - 'RNBD' network block driver and target. This is a network block
     RDMA device specific to ionos's cloud environment. It brings strong
     multipath and resiliency capabilities.

   - Accelerated IPoIB for HFI1

   - QP/WQ/SRQ ioctl migration for uverbs, and support for multiple
     async fds

   - Support for exchanging the new IBTA defiend ECE data during RDMA CM
     exchanges

   - Removal of the very old and insecure FMR interface from all ULPs
     and drivers. FRWR should be preferred for at least a decade now"

<title>sysfs: add sysfs_change_owner()</title>

<content type='text'>
Add a helper to change the owner of sysfs objects.
This function will be used to correctly account for kobject ownership
changes, e.g. when moving network devices between network namespaces.

This mirrors how a kobject is added through driver core which in its guts is
done via kobject_add_internal() which in summary creates the main directory via
create_dir(), populates that directory with the groups associated with the
ktype of the kobject (if any) and populates the directory with the basic
attributes associated with the ktype of the kobject (if any). These are the
basic steps that are associated with adding a kobject in sysfs.
Any additional properties are added by the specific subsystem itself (not by
driver core) after it has registered the device. So for the example of network
devices, a network device will e.g. register a queue subdirectory under the
basic sysfs directory for the network device and than further subdirectories
within that queues subdirectory.  But that is all specific to network devices
and they call the corresponding sysfs functions to do that directly when they
create those queue objects. So anything that a subsystem adds outside of what
driver core does must also be changed by it (That's already true for removal of
files it created outside of driver core.) and it's the same for ownership
changes.

It's rude to crash the system just because the developer did something
wrong, as it prevents them from usually even seeing what went wrong.

So convert the few BUG_ON() calls that have snuck into the sysfs code
over the years to WARN_ON() to make it more "friendly".  All of these
are able to be recovered from, so it makes no sense to crash.
