As we talked about, I think this patch breaks the module reference
counting for uverbs a little bit.

However, I looked at a few things, and I think with a slight tweak to
the anon-inodes stuff (which I think is a good change anyway), uverbs
can switch to that and drop both get_empty_filp() and all the
infinibandeventfs junk too.

I'll send patches shortly.
