The module_put() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

An application may deterministically attach the underlying transport for
a PF_RDS socket by invoking setsockopt(2) with the SO_RDS_TRANSPORT
option at the SOL_RDS level. The integer argument to setsockopt must be
one of the RDS_TRANS_* transport types, e.g., RDS_TRANS_TCP. The option
must be specified before invoking bind(2) on the socket, and may only
be used once on the socket. An attempt to set the option on a bound
socket, or to invoke the option after a successful SO_RDS_TRANSPORT
attachment, will return EOPNOTSUPP.

Right now there's nothing to stop the various paths that use
rs->rs_transport from racing with rmmod and executing freed transport
code. The simple fix is to have binding to a transport also hold a
reference to the transport's module, removing this class of races.
We already had an unused t_owner field which was set for the modular
transports and which wasn't set for the built-in loop transport.

Now that transports can be loaded in arbitrary order,
it is important for rds_trans_get_preferred() to look
for them in a particular order, instead of walking the list
until it finds a transport that works for a given address.
Now, each transport registers for a specific transport slot,
and these are ordered so that preferred transports come first,
and then if they are not loaded, other transports are queried.

Now that rdma and tcp transports will be modularized,
we need to export a number of functions so they can call them.

RDS supports multiple transports. While this initial submission
only supports Infiniband transport, this abstraction allows others
to be added. We're working on an iWARP transport, and also see
UDP over DCB as another possibility.
This code handles transport registration.
