Add kernel support for userspace calling poll CQ, request CQ
notification, post send, post receive, post SRQ receive, create AH and
destroy AH commands. These commands allow us to support userspace
verbs for devices that can't perform these operations directly from
userspace (eg the PathScale HCA).

Reject userspace memory registrations with invalid permission flags:
"local write" is required if "remote write" or "remote atomic" is also
requested.

By waiting to add resources to our lists until after the last
operation that can fail, we don't have to remove them from their lists
in the error path. Also, we should hold the idr mutex until we know
whether resource creation has succeed or failed, to avoid someone
finding a resource in our table before we're ready.
Loosely based on work by Robert Walsh <rjwalsh@pathscale.com>.

Introduce new userspace verbs ABI version 3. This eliminates some
unneeded commands, and adds support for user-created completion
channels. This cleans up problems with file leaks on error paths, and
also makes sure that file descriptors are always installed into the
correct process.

Al Viro pointed out that the current IB userspace verbs interface
allows userspace to cause mischief by closing file descriptors before
we're ready, or issuing the same command twice at the same time. This
patch closes those races, and fixes other obvious problems such as a
module reference leak.
Some other interface bogosities will require an ABI change to fix
properly, so I'm deferring those fixes until 2.6.15.

completion events after destroying a CQ, QP or SRQ. We do this by
sweeping the event lists before returning from a destroy calls, and
then return the number of events already reported before the destroy
call. This allows userspace wait until it has processed all events
for an object returned from the kernel before it frees its context for
the object.
The ABI of the destroy CQ, destroy QP and destroy SRQ commands has to
change to return the event count, so bump the ABI version from 1 to 2.
The userspace libibverbs library has already been updated to handle
both the old and new ABI versions.

Add SRQ support to userspace verbs module. This adds several commands
and associated structures, but it's OK to do this without bumping the
ABI version because the commands are added at the end of the list so
they don't change the existing numbering. There are two cases to
worry about:
1. New kernel, old userspace. This is OK because old userspace simply
won't try to use the new SRQ commands. None of the old commands are
changed.
2. Old kernel, new userspace. This works perfectly as long as
userspace doesn't try to use SRQ commands. If userspace tries to
use SRQ commands, it will get EINVAL, which is perfectly
reasonable: the kernel doesn't support SRQs, so we couldn't do any
better.

Add the core of the InfiniBand userspace verbs implementation, including
creating character device nodes, dispatching requests from userspace, and
passing event notifications back up to userspace.
