Now when ib_udata is passed to all the driver's object create/destroy APIs
the ib_udata will carry the ib_ucontext for every user command. There is
no need to also pass the ib_ucontext via the functions prototypes.
Make ib_udata the only argument psssed.

When vmalloc_user is used to create memory that is supposed to be mmap'd
to user space, it is necessary for the mmap cookie (eg the offset) to be
aligned to SHMLBA.
This creates a situation where all virtual mappings of the same physical
page share the same virtual cache index and guarantees VIPT coherence.
Otherwise the cache is non-coherent and the kernel will not see writes
by userspace when reading the shared page (or vice-versa).

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.

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.
