RDMA/cma: Multiple path records support with netlink channel
Support receiving inbound and outbound IB path records (along with GMP
PathRecord) from user-space service through the RDMA netlink channel.
The LIDs in these 3 PRs can be used in this way:
1. GMP PR: used as the standard local/remote LIDs;
2. DLID of outbound PR: Used as the "dlid" field for outbound traffic;
3. DLID of inbound PR: Used as the "dlid" field for outbound traffic in
responder side.
This is aimed to support adaptive routing. With current IB routing
solution when a packet goes out it's assigned with a fixed DLID per
target, meaning a fixed router will be used.
The LIDs in inbound/outbound path records can be used to identify group
of routers that allow communication with another subnet's entity. With
them packets from an inter-subnet connection may travel through any
router in the set to reach the target.
As confirmed with Jason, when sending a netlink request, kernel uses
LS_RESOLVE_PATH_USE_ALL so that the service knows kernel supports
multiple PRs.
