---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,

The "QP allocation" series shows clearly how convoluted the create QP
flow and especially XRC_TGT flow, where it calls to kernel verb just
to pass some parameters as NULL to the user create QP verb.

This series is a small step to make clean XRC_TGT flow by providing
more clean user/kernel create QP verb separation.

It is based on the "QP allocation" series.

Thanks
