Subject: [RFC V1 0/2] be2net: Added functionality to support RoCE driver

From: Parav Pandit <parav.pandit@...lex.com>

This patch addresses all the review comments given by Francois Romieu &
David Laight for past patch except be_roce_supported() macro as it
breaks the modularity of be_cmds.x

This patch is against roland's below Infiniband tree.
http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/roland/infiniband.git
Simiilar patch against netdev net-next tree will be made based on this patch.

This patch adds functionality to support RoCE (RDMA over Ethernet) driver.
- Detecting RoCE supported adapters and creating linked list of them.
- Enabling 5 more MSIX vectors for RoCE functionality.
- Calling registered callback functions of the RoCE driver
  whenever new RoCE capable device is added/removed.
- Notifying events to RoCE driver when interface is up or down.
- Provides device specific details to RoCE driver for each roce device.
- Provides low level mailbox command to be issued by RoCE driver
  before it can have it own MQ.

Parav Pandit (2):
  be2net: Added function to issue mailbox cmd on MQ.
  be2net: Added functionality to support RoCE driver
