Extend rdma_cm to support multicast communication. Multicast support
is added to the existing RDMA_PS_UDP port space, as well as a new
RDMA_PS_IPOIB port space. The latter port space allows joining the
multicast groups used by IPoIB, which enables offloading IPoIB traffic
to a separate QP. The port space determines the signature used in the
MGID when joining the group. The newly added RDMA_PS_IPOIB also
allows for unicast operations, similar to RDMA_PS_UDP.
Supporting the RDMA_PS_IPOIB requires changing how UD QPs are initialized,
since we can no longer assume that the qkey is constant. This requires
saving the Q_Key to use when attaching to a device, so that it is
available when creating the QP. The Q_Key information is exported to
the user through the existing rdma_init_qp_attr() interface.
Multicast support is also exported to userspace through the rdma_ucm.

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

There's a problem with how rdma cm events are reported to userspace
that can lead to application crashes.
When a new connection request arrives, a context for the connection is
allocated in the kernel. The connection event is then reported to
userspace. The userspace library retrieves the event and allocates
its own context for the connection. The userspace context is
associated with the kernel's context when accepting. This allows the
kernel to give userspace context with other events.
A problem occurs if a second event for the same connection occurs
before the user has had a chance to call accept. The userspace
context has not yet been set, which causes the librdmacm to crash.
(This has been seen when the app takes too long to call accept,
resulting in the remote side timing out and rejecting the connection)
Fix this by ignoring events for new connections until userspace has
set their context. This can only happen if an error occurs on a new
connection before the user accepts it. This is okay, since the accept
will just fail later.

We discard new connection requests while the listen backlog is full,
but leak a struct ucma_event in the process. Free the structure in
this case.
