Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma
Pull rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
"Initial roundup of 4.5 merge window patches
- Remove usage of ib_query_device and instead store attributes in
ib_device struct
- Move iopoll out of block and into lib, rename to irqpoll, and use
in several places in the rdma stack as our new completion queue
polling library mechanism. Update the other block drivers that
already used iopoll to use the new mechanism too.
- Replace the per-entry GID table locks with a single GID table lock
- IPoIB multicast cleanup
- Cleanups to the IB MR facility
- Add support for 64bit extended IB counters
- Fix for netlink oops while parsing RDMA nl messages
- RoCEv2 support for the core IB code
- mlx4 RoCEv2 support
- mlx5 RoCEv2 support
- Cross Channel support for mlx5
- Timestamp support for mlx5
- Atomic support for mlx5
- Raw QP support for mlx5
- MAINTAINERS update for mlx4/mlx5
- Misc ocrdma, qib, nes, usNIC, cxgb3, cxgb4, mlx4, mlx5 updates
- Add support for remote invalidate to the iSER driver (pushed
through the RDMA tree due to dependencies, acknowledged by nab)
- Update to NFSoRDMA (pushed through the RDMA tree due to
dependencies, acknowledged by Bruce)"
