Add support for sending and receiving large RMPP transfers. The old
code supports transfers only as large as a single contiguous kernel
memory allocation. This patch uses linked list of memory buffers when
sending and receiving data to avoid needing contiguous pages for
larger transfers.
Receive side: copy the arriving MADs in chunks instead of coalescing
to one large buffer in kernel space.
Send side: split a multipacket MAD buffer to a list of segments,
(multipacket_list) and send these using a gather list of size 2.
Also, save pointer to last sent segment, and retrieve requested
segments by walking list starting at last sent segment. Finally,
save pointer to last-acked segment. When retrying, retrieve
segments for resending relative to this pointer. When updating last
ack, start at this pointer.

The MAD layer was violating the DMA API by touching data buffers used
for sends after the DMA mapping was done. This causes problems on
non-cache-coherent architectures, because the device doing DMA won't
see updates to the payload buffers that exist only in the CPU cache.
Fix this by having all MAD consumers use ib_create_send_mad() to
allocate their send buffers, and moving the DMA mapping into the MAD
layer so it can be done just before calling send (and after any
modifications of the send buffer by the MAD layer).
Tested on a non-cache-coherent PowerPC 440SPe system.

Move the InfiniBand headers from drivers/infiniband/include to include/rdma.
This allows InfiniBand-using code to live elsewhere, and lets us remove the
ugly EXTRA_CFLAGS include path from the InfiniBand Makefiles.

Add new MAD layer call to modify (ib_modify_mad) the timeout of a sent MAD,
and simplify cancel code.

Fixes an issue processing a sent MAD after it has timed out or been canceled.
The race occurs when a response MAD matches with the send request. The
request could time out or be canceled after the response MAD matches with the
request, but before the request completion can be processed.

Have ib_mad_send_wr_private reference the private agent structure directly,
rather than the exposed agent definition. Remove unneeded parameters to
functions and simplify code were possible from this change.

Replace the *wc field in ib_mad_recv_wc from pointing to a structure on the
stack to one allocated with the received MAD buffer. This allows a client to
access the *wc field after their receive completion handler has returned.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
