RDMA/core: Add XRC domain support
XRC ("eXtended reliable connected") is an IB transport that provides better scalability by allowing senders to specify which shared receive queue (SRQ) should be used to receive a message, which essentially allows one transport context (QP connection) to serve multiple destinations (as long as they share an adapter, of course). A few new concepts are introduced to support this. This patch adds: - A new device capability flag, IB_DEVICE_XRC, which low-level drivers set to indicate that a device supports XRC. - A new object type, XRC domains (struct ib_xrcd), and new verbs ib_alloc_xrcd()/ib_dealloc_xrcd(). XRCDs are used to limit which XRC SRQs an incoming message can target. This patch is derived from work by Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il>.
