Al Viro pointed out that the current IB userspace verbs interface
allows userspace to cause mischief by closing file descriptors before
we're ready, or issuing the same command twice at the same time. This
patch closes those races, and fixes other obvious problems such as a
module reference leak.
Some other interface bogosities will require an ABI change to fix
properly, so I'm deferring those fixes until 2.6.15.

completion events after destroying a CQ, QP or SRQ. We do this by
sweeping the event lists before returning from a destroy calls, and
then return the number of events already reported before the destroy
call. This allows userspace wait until it has processed all events
for an object returned from the kernel before it frees its context for
the object.
The ABI of the destroy CQ, destroy QP and destroy SRQ commands has to
change to return the event count, so bump the ABI version from 1 to 2.
The userspace libibverbs library has already been updated to handle
both the old and new ABI versions.

Add SRQ support to userspace verbs module. This adds several commands
and associated structures, but it's OK to do this without bumping the
ABI version because the commands are added at the end of the list so
they don't change the existing numbering. There are two cases to
worry about:
1. New kernel, old userspace. This is OK because old userspace simply
won't try to use the new SRQ commands. None of the old commands are
changed.
2. Old kernel, new userspace. This works perfectly as long as
userspace doesn't try to use SRQ commands. If userspace tries to
use SRQ commands, it will get EINVAL, which is perfectly
reasonable: the kernel doesn't support SRQs, so we couldn't do any
better.
