Yonatan Cohen 908948877b IB/rxe: Fix duplicate atomic request handling
When handling ack for atomic opcodes like "fetch&add"
or "cmp&swp", the method send_atomic_ack() saves the ack
before sending it, in case it gets lost and never reach the
requester. In which case the method duplicate_request()
will need to find it using the duplicated request.psn.
But send_atomic_ack() used a wrong psn value and thus
the above ack was never found.
This fix uses the ack.psn to locate the ack in case
its needed.
This fix also copies the ack packet to the skb's control buffer
since duplicate_request() will need it when calling rxe_xmit_packet()

Moni Shoua 8700e3e7c4 Soft RoCE driver
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.
