IB/core: Add "type 2" memory windows support
This patch enhances the IB core support for Memory Windows (MWs).
MWs allow an application to have better/flexible control over remote
access to memory.
Two types of MWs are supported, with the second type having two flavors:
Type 1 - associated with PD only
Type 2A - associated with QPN only
Type 2B - associated with PD and QPN
Applications can allocate a MW once, and then repeatedly bind the MW
to different ranges in MRs that are associated to the same PD. Type 1
windows are bound through a verb, while type 2 windows are bound by
posting a work request.
The 32-bit memory key is composed of a 24-bit index and an 8-bit
key. The key is changed with each bind, thus allowing more control
over the peer's use of the memory key.
The changes introduced are the following:
* add memory window type enum and a corresponding parameter to ib_alloc_mw.
* type 2 memory window bind work request support.
* create a struct that contains the common part of the bind verb struct
ibv_mw_bind and the bind work request into a single struct.
* add the ib_inc_rkey helper function to advance the tag part of an rkey.
Consumer interface details:
* new device capability flags IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2A and
IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2B are added to indicate device support
for these features.
Devices can set either IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2A or
IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2B if it supports type 2A or type 2B
memory windows. It can set neither to indicate it doesn't support
type 2 windows at all.
* modify existing provides and consumers code to the new param of
ib_alloc_mw and the ib_mw_bind_info structure
