This v7 of patch series is used to read the port_attribute subnet_prefix
from a valid cache entry instead of having to call
device->ops.query_gid() for Infiniband link-layer devices in
__ib_query_port().

In the event of a cache update, the value for subnet_prefix gets read
using device->ops.query_gid() in config_non_roce_gid_cache().

    IB/core: Updating cache for subnet_prefix in
      config_non_roce_gid_cache()
    IB/core: Shifting initialization of device->cache_lock.
    IB/core: Read subnet_prefix in ib_query_port via cache.
v1 -> v2:
      -   Split the v1 patch in 3 patches as per Leon's suggestion.

v2 -> v3:
      -   Added changes as per Mark Zhang's suggestion of clearing
          flags in git_table_cleanup_one().
v3 -> v4:
      -   Removed the enum ib_port_data_flags and 8 byte flags from
          struct ib_port_data, and the set_bit()/clear_bit() API
          used to update this flag as that was not necessary.
          Done to keep the code simple.
      -   Added code to read subnet_prefix from updated GID cache in the
          event of cache update. Prior to this change, ib_cache_update
          was reading the value for subnet_prefix via ib_query_port(),
          due to this patch, we ended up reading a stale cached value of
          subnet_prefix.
v4 -> v5:
      -   Removed the code to reset cache_is_initialised bit from cleanup
          as per Leon's suggestion.
      -   Removed ib_cache_is_initialised() function.

v5 -> v6:
      -   Added changes as per Jason's suggestion of updating subnet_prefix
          in config_non_roce_gid_cache() and removing the flag
          cache_is_initialized in __ib_query_port().

v6 -> v7:
      -	Reordering the initialization of cache_lock, as the previous
	version caused an access to uninitialized cache_lock.

Hi,

This is just a reminder note requesting review for this patch-set.

You'll probably have to resend it after the merge window closed on
Monday, rebased on the new rc1

Jason

Hi Jason,

Thanks for the response. Ok, I will rebase and resend this patchset.

Thx, Anand
