Robert P. J. Day c376222960 [PATCH] Transform kmem_cache_alloc()+memset(0) -> kmem_cache_zalloc().
Replace appropriate pairs of "kmem_cache_alloc()" + "memset(0)" with the
corresponding "kmem_cache_zalloc()" call.

Hoang-Nam Nguyen 4c34bdf58c IB/ehca: Remove use of do_mmap()
This patch removes do_mmap() from ehca:
 - Call remap_pfn_range() for hardware register block
 - Use vm_insert_page() to register memory allocated for completion
   queues and queue pairs
 - The actual mmap() call/trigger is now controlled by user space,
   ie. libehca

Hoang-Nam Nguyen f2d9136133 IB/ehca: Use proper GFP_ flags for get_zeroed_page()
Here is a patch for ehca to use proper flag, ie. GFP_ATOMIC
resp. GFP_KERNEL, when calling get_zeroed_page() to prevent "Bug:
scheduling while atomic...". This error does not cause a kernel panic
but makes ipoib un-usable afterwards.  It is reproducible on
2.6.20-rc4 if one does ifconfig down during a flood ping test.  I have
not observed this error in earlier releases incl. 2.6.20-rc1.

This error occurs when a qp event/irq is received and ehca event
handler allocates a control block/page to obtain HCA error data block.
Use of GFP_ATOMIC when in interrupt context prevents this issue.

Hoang-Nam Nguyen 2771e9ed47 IB/ehca: Use WQE offset instead of WQE addr for pending work reqs
This is a patch for ehca to fix a bug in prepare_sqe_to_rts(), which
used WQE address to iterate pending work requests.  This might cause
an access violation since the queue pages can not be assumed to follow
each other consecutively.  Thus, this patch introduces a few queue
functions to determine WQE offset based on its address and uses WQE
offset to iterate the pending work requests.

Hoang-Nam Nguyen 7e28db5d8f IB/ehca: Assure 4K alignment for firmware control blocks
Assure 4K alignment for firmware control blocks in 64K page mode,
because kzalloc()'s result address might not be 4K aligned if 64K
pages are enabled. Thus, we introduce wrappers called
ehca_{alloc,free}_fw_ctrlblock(), which use a slab cache for objects
with 4K length and 4K alignment in order to alloc/free firmware
control blocks in 64K page mode. In 4K page mode those wrappers just
are defines of get_zeroed_page() and free_page().

Ralph Campbell 9bc57e2d19 IB/uverbs: Pass userspace data to modify_srq and modify_qp methods
Pass a struct ib_udata to the low-level driver's ->modify_srq() and
->modify_qp() methods, so that it can get to the device-specific data
passed in by the userspace driver.
