With calls to modular infrastructure, these files really
needs the full module.h header.  Call it out so some of the
cleanups of implicit and unrequired includes elsewhere can be
cleaned up.

<title>RDMA/cma: Pass QP type into rdma_create_id()</title>

<content type='text'>
The RDMA CM currently infers the QP type from the port space selected
by the user.  In the future (eg with RDMA_PS_IB or XRC), there may not
be a 1-1 correspondence between port space and QP type.  For netlink
export of RDMA CM state, we want to export the QP type to userspace,
so it is cleaner to explicitly associate a QP type to an ID.

Modify rdma_create_id() to allow the user to specify the QP type, and
use it to make our selections of datagram versus connected mode.

With cmwq, there's no reason to use dedicated rds_ib_fmr_wq - it's not
in the memory reclaim path and the maximum number of concurrent work
items is bound by the number of devices.  Drop it and use system_wq
instead.  This rds_ib_fmr_init/exit() noops.  Both removed.

The RDS protocol has lots of functions that should be

removed since it defined but never used.

<title>RDS/IB: protect the list of IB devices</title>

The RDS IB device list wasn't protected by any locking.  Traversal in
both the get_mr and FMR flushing paths could race with additon and
removal.

List manipulation is done with RCU primatives and is protected by the
write side of a rwsem.  The list traversal in the get_mr fast path is
protected by a rcu read critical section.  The FMR list traversal is
more problematic because it can block while traversing the list.  We
protect this with the read side of the rwsem.

<title>RDS/IB: create a work queue for FMR flushing</title>

This patch moves the FMR flushing work in to its own mult-threaded work queue.
This is to maintain performance in preparation for returning the main krdsd
work queue back to a single threaded work queue to avoid deep-rooted
concurrency bugs.

This is also good because it further separates FMRs, which might be removed
some day, from the rest of the code base.

<title>RDS/IB: destroy connections on rmmod</title>

IB connections were not being destroyed during rmmod.

First, recently IB device removal callback was changed to disconnect
connections that used the removing device rather than destroying them.  So
connections with devices during rmmod were not being destroyed.

Second, rds_ib_destroy_nodev_conns() was being called before connections are
disassociated with devices.  It would almost never find connections in the
nodev list.

We first get rid of rds_ib_destroy_conns(), which is no longer called, and
refactor the existing caller into the main body of the function and get rid of
the list and lock wrappers.

Then we call rds_ib_destroy_nodev_conns() *after* ib_unregister_client() has
removed the IB device from all the conns and put the conns on the nodev list.

The result is that IB connections are destroyed by rmmod.

The RDS IB client removal callback can queue work to drop the final reference
to an IB device.  We have to make sure that this function has returned before
we complete rmmod or the work threads can try to execute freed code.

<title>RDS/IB: disconnect when IB devices are removed</title>

Currently IB device removal destroys connections which are associated with the
device.  This prevents connections from being re-established when replacement
devices are added.

Instead we'll queue shutdown work on the connections as their devices are
removed.  When we see that devices are added we triger connection attempts on
all connections that don't currently have a device.

The result is that RDS sockets can resume device-independent work (bcopy, not
RDMA) across IB device removal and restoration.
