Subject: [PATCH 4.16 125/279] IB: make INFINIBAND_ADDR_TRANS configurable

4.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Greg Thelen <gthelen@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit f7cb7b85be55a4906b4b4b30596db1043dae6335 ]

Allow INFINIBAND without INFINIBAND_ADDR_TRANS because fuzzing has been
finding fair number of CM bugs.  So provide option to disable it.
