90898850ec IB/core: Rename struct ib_ah_attr to rdma_ah_attr
This patch simply renames struct ib_ah_attr to
rdma_ah_attr as these fields specify attributes that are
not necessarily specific to IB.

e404f945a6 IB/rxe: improved debug prints & code cleanup
1. Debugging qp state transitions and qp errors in loopback and
multiple QP tests is difficult without qp numbers in debug logs.
This patch adds qp number to important debug logs.

2. Instead of having rxe: prefix in few logs and not having in
few logs, using uniform module name prefix using pr_fmt macro.

3. Code cleanup for various warnings reported by checkpatch for
incomplete unsigned data type, line over 80 characters, return
statements.

8700e3e7c4 Soft RoCE driver
Soft RoCE (RXE) - The software RoCE driver

ib_rxe implements the RDMA transport and registers to the RDMA core
device as a kernel verbs provider. It also implements the packet IO
layer. On the other hand ib_rxe registers to the Linux netdev stack
as a udp encapsulating protocol, in that case RDMA, for sending and
receiving packets over any Ethernet device.  This yields a RDMA
transport over the UDP/Ethernet network layer forming a RoCEv2
compatible device.

The configuration procedure of the Soft RoCE drivers requires
binding to any existing Ethernet network device. This is done with
/sys interface.

A userspace Soft RoCE library (librxe) provides user applications
the ability to run with Soft RoCE devices.  The use of rxe verbs ins
user space requires the inclusion of librxe as a device specifics
plug-in to libibverbs. librxe is packaged separately.
