Subject: [PATCH for-next 00/10] IB SR-IOV support

Hi Doug, Dave 

The following series adds support for managing SRIOV IB VFs in a standard 
way (rtnetlink, iproute2) through IPoIB ndo entries which translate to 
corresponding verbs calls. 

In IB networks, 64 bit GUIDs are used as the primary means of identification. 
To support that for VFs, we added a set_vf_guid ndo which is used to program 
the VF node and port GUID from the PF. 

Those verbs are implemented by the mlx5 driver along with some more changes 
needed in the driver, IPoIB and the IB core to support IB virtualization.

We've copied netdev only on the 1st patch of the series, as the rest of it just 
uses the patch along with the existing ndos in IPoIB plus add things which 
are internal to the IB stack. 

The series is rebased against 4.5-rc6 and Meny's patches:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-rdma/msg33536.html and also assumes
Leon's patch that extends the kernel ib device attr caps field to u64.
