Currently, iflink of the parent interface was always accessed, even
when interface didn't have a parent and hence we crashed there.

Handle the interface types properly: for a child interface, return
the ifindex of the parent, for parent interface, return its ifindex.

For child devices, make sure to set the parent pointer prior to
invoking register_netdevice(), this allows the new ndo to be called
by the stack immediately after the child device is registered.

Whenever there is no path-&gt;ah to the destination, keep only defined
number of skb's. Otherwise there are cases that the driver can keep
infinite list of skb's.

For example, when one device want to send unicast arp to the destination,
and from some reason the SM doesn't respond, the driver currently keeps
all the skb's. If that unicast arp traffic stopped, all  these skb's
are kept by the path object till the interface is down.

<title>IB/ipoib: Handle QP in SQE state</title>

<content type='text'>
As the result of a completion error the QP can moved to SQE state by
the hardware. Since it's not the Error state, there are no flushes
and hence the driver doesn't know about that.

The fix creates a task that after completion with error which is not a
flush tracks the QP state and if it is in SQE state moves it back to RTS.

<title>IB/ipoib: Update broadcast record values after each successful join request</title>

Update the cached broadcast record in the priv object after every new
join of this broadcast domain group.

These values are needed for the port configuration (MTU size) and to
all the new multicast (non-broadcast) join requests initial parameters.

For example, SM starts with 2K MTU for all the fabric, and after that it
restarts (or handover to new SM) with new port configuration of 4K MTU.
Without using the new values, the driver will keep its old configuration
of 2K and will not apply the new configuration of 4K.

<title>IB/ipoib: Use one linear skb in RX flow</title>

The current code in the RX flow uses two sg entries for each incoming
packet, the first one was for the IB headers and the second for the rest
of the data, that causes two  dma map/unmap and two allocations, and few
more actions that were done at the data path.

Use only one linear skb on each incoming packet, for the data (IB
headers and payload), that reduces the packet processing in the
data-path (only one skb, no frags, the first frag was not used anyway,
less memory allocations) and the dma handling (only one dma map/unmap
over each incoming packet instead of two map/unmap per each incoming packet).

After commit 73d3fe6d1c6d ("gro: fix aggregation for skb using frag_list") from
Eric Dumazet, we will get full aggregation for large packets.

When running bandwidth tests before and after the (over the card's numa node),
using "netperf -H 1.1.1.3 -T -t TCP_STREAM", the results before are ~12Gbs before
and after ~16Gbs on my setup (Mellanox's ConnectX3).

<title>IB/ipoib: drop mcast_mutex usage</title>

We needed the mcast_mutex when we had to prevent the join completion
callback from having the value it stored in mcast-&gt;mc overwritten
by a delayed return from ib_sa_join_multicast.  By storing the return
of ib_sa_join_multicast in an intermediate variable, we prevent a
delayed return from ib_sa_join_multicast overwriting the valid
contents of mcast-&gt;mc, and we no longer need a mutex to force the
join callback to run after the return of ib_sa_join_multicast.  This
allows us to do away with the mutex entirely and protect our critical
sections with a just a spinlock instead.  This is highly desirable
as there were some places where we couldn't use a mutex because the
code was not allowed to sleep, and so we were currently using a mix
of mutex and spinlock to protect what we needed to protect.  Now we
only have a spin lock and the locking complexity is greatly reduced.

Allow the ipoib layer to attempt to join all outstanding multicast
groups at once.  The ib_sa layer will serialize multiple attempts to
join the same group, but will process attempts to join different groups
in parallel.  Take advantage of that.

In order to make this happen, change the mcast_join_thread to loop
through all needed joins, sending a join request for each one that we
still need to join.  There are a few special cases we handle though:

1) Don't attempt to join anything but the broadcast group until the join
of the broadcast group has succeeded.
2) No longer restart the join task at the end of completion handling.
If we completed successfully, we are done.  The join task now needs kicked
either by mcast_send or mcast_restart_task or mcast_start_thread, but
should not need started anytime else except when scheduling a backoff
attempt to rejoin.
3) No longer use separate join/completion routines for regular and
sendonly joins, pass them all through the same routine and just do the
right thing based on the SENDONLY join flag.
4) Only try to join a SENDONLY join twice, then drop the packets and
quit trying.  We leave the mcast group in the list so that if we get a
new packet, all that we have to do is queue up the packet and restart
the join task and it will automatically try to join twice and then
either send or flush the queue again.

attempt to rejoin.
3) No longer use separate join/completion routines for regular and
sendonly joins, pass them all through the same routine and just do the
right thing based on the SENDONLY join flag.
4) Only try to join a SENDONLY join twice, then drop the packets and
quit trying.  We leave the mcast group in the list so that if we get a
new packet, all that we have to do is queue up the packet and restart
the join task and it will automatically try to join twice and then
either send or flush the queue again.
