Chuck Lever b024dd0eba rxe: IB_WR_REG_MR does not capture MR's iova field
FRWR memory registration is done with a series of calls and WRs.
1. ULP invokes ib_dma_map_sg()
2. ULP invokes ib_map_mr_sg()
3. ULP posts an IB_WR_REG_MR on the Send queue

Step 2 generates an iova. It is permissible for ULPs to change this
iova (with certain restrictions) between steps 2 and 3.

rxe_map_mr_sg captures the MR's iova but later when rxe processes the
REG_MR WR, it ignores the MR's iova field. If a ULP alters the MR's iova
after step 2 but before step 3, rxe never captures that change.

When the remote sends an RDMA Read targeting that MR, rxe looks up the
R_key, but the altered iova does not match the iova stored in the MR,
causing the RDMA Read request to fail.
