Subject: [PATCH 2/2] IB/uverbs: Use anonymous inodes instead of private filesystem
Now that anonymous inodes allow us to control when fd_install() is
called, we can convert ib_uverbs to use them instead of its own
private infinibandeventfs virtual filesystem. This removes a healthy
chunk of code and also deletes the last in-tree user of
get_empty_filp(), which makes Christoph Hellwig happy.
Tested with an app that uses the ib_uverbs event file interfaces.
