ibcore: Kernel space update based on Linux 5.7-rc1.

Overview:

This is the first stage of a RDMA stack upgrade introducing kernel
changes only based on Linux 5.7-rc1.

This patch is based on about four main areas of work:
- Update of the IB uobjects system:
- The memory holding so-called AH, CQ, PD, SRQ and UCONTEXT objects
is now managed by ibcore. This also require some changes in the
kernel verbs API. The updated verbs changes are typically about
initialize and deinitialize objects, and remove allocation and
free of memory.

- Update of the uverbs IOCTL framework:
- The parsing and handling of user-space commands has been
completely refactored to integrate with the updated IB uobjects
system.

- Various changes and updates to the generic uverbs interfaces in
device drivers including the new uAPI surface.

- The mlx5_ib_devx.c in mlx5ib and related mlx5 core changes.

Dependencies:

- The mlx4ib driver code has been updated with the minimum changes
needed.

- The mlx5ib driver code has been updated with the minimum changes
needed including DV support.

Compatibility:

- All user-space facing APIs are backwards compatible after this
change.

- All kernel-space facing RDMA APIs are backwards compatible after
this change, with exception of ib_create_ah() and ib_destroy_ah()
which takes a new flag.

- The "ib_device_ops" structure exist, but only contains the driver ID
and some structure sizes.

Differences from Linux:

- Infiniband drivers must use the INIT_IB_DEVICE_OPS() macro to set
the sizes needed for allocating various IB objects, when adding
IB device instances.

Security:

- PRIV_NET_RAW is needed to use raw ethernet transmit features.
- PRIV_DRIVER is needed to use other privileged operations.

Based on upstream Linux, Torvalds (5.7-rc1):

ibcore: Declare ib_post_send() and ib_post_recv() arguments const

Since neither ib_post_send() nor ib_post_recv() modify the data structure
their second argument points at, declare that argument const. This change
makes it necessary to declare the 'bad_wr' argument const too and also to
modify all ULPs that call ib_post_send(), ib_post_recv() or
ib_post_srq_recv(). This patch does not change any functionality but makes
it possible for the compiler to verify whether the
ib_post_(send|recv|srq_recv) really do not modify the posted work request.

mlx4/OFED: replace the struct net_device with struct ifnet

Given all the code does operate on struct ifnet, the last step in this
longer series of changes now is to rename struct net_device to
struct ifnet (that is what it was defined to in the LinuxKPi code).
While mlx4 and OFED are "shared" code the decision was made years ago
to not write it based on the netdevice KPI but the native ifnet KPI
for most of it. This commit simply spells this out and with that
frees "struct netdevice" to be re-done on LinuxKPI to become a more
native/mixed implementation over time as needed by, e.g., wireless
drivers.

Optimize ibcore RoCE address handle creation from user-space.

Creating a UD address handle from user-space or from the kernel-space,
when the link layer is ethernet, requires resolving the remote L3
address into a L2 address. Doing this from the kernel is easy because
the required ARP(IPv4) and ND6(IPv6) address resolving APIs are readily
available. In userspace such an interface does not exist and kernel
help is required.

It should be noted that in an IP-based GID environment, the GID itself
does not contain all the information needed to resolve the destination
IP address. For example information like VLAN ID and SCOPE ID, is not
part of the GID and must be fetched from the GID attributes. Therefore
a source GID should always be referred to as a GID index. Instead of
going through various racy steps to obtain information about the
GID attributes from user-space, this is now all done by the kernel.

This patch optimises the L3 to L2 address resolving using the existing
create address handle uverbs interface, retrieving back the L2 address
as an additional user-space information structure.

This commit combines the following Linux upstream commits:

IB/core: Let create_ah return extended response to user
IB/core: Change ib_resolve_eth_dmac to use it in create AH
IB/mlx5: Make create/destroy_ah available to userspace
IB/mlx5: Use kernel driver to help userspace create ah
IB/mlx5: Report that device has udata response in create_ah

Update the mlx4 core and mlx4en(4) modules towards Linux v4.9.

Background:
The coming ibcore update forces an update of mlx4ib(4) which in turn requires
an updated mlx4 core module. This also affects the mlx4en(4) module because
commonly used APIs are updated. This commit is a middle step updating the
mlx4 modules towards the new ibcore.

This change contains no major new features.

Changes in mlx4:
a) Improved error handling when mlx4 PCI devices are
detached inside VMs.
b) Major update of codebase towards Linux 4.9.

Changes in mlx4ib(4):
a) Minimal changes needed in order to compile using the
updated mlx4 core APIs.

Changes in mlx4en(4):
a) Update flow steering code in mlx4en to use new APIs for
registering MAC addresses and IP addresses.
b) Update all statistics counters to be 64-bit.
c) Minimal changes needed in order to compile using the
updated mlx4 core APIs.

Move the ConnectX-3 and ConnectX-2 driver from sys/ofed into sys/dev/mlx4

- Add new manual page, mlx4en(4), describing how to configure and load
mlx4en.

- All relevant driver C-files are now prefixed mlx4, mlx4_en and
mlx4_ib respectivly to avoid object filename collisions when compiling
the kernel. This also fixes an issue with proper dependency file
generation for the C-files in question.

- Device mlxen is now device mlx4en and depends on device mlx4, see
mlx4en(4). Only the network device name remains unchanged.

- The mlx4 and mlx4en modules are now built by default on i386 and
amd64 targets. Only building the mlx4ib module depends on
WITH_OFED=YES .
