Remove references to private kernel header and defines from exported
ib_user_verb.h file.

The code snippet below is used to reproduce the issue:

 #include <stdio.h>
 #include <rdma/ib_user_verb.h>

 int main(void)
 {
	printf("IB_USER_VERBS_ABI_VERSION = %d\n", IB_USER_VERBS_ABI_VERSION);
	return 0;
 }

It fails during compilation phase with an error:
➜  /tmp gcc main.c
main.c:2:31: fatal error: rdma/ib_user_verb.h: No such file or directory
 #include <rdma/ib_user_verb.h>
                               ^
compilation terminated.

I tried to write this earlier, but for some reason my mailer didn't really send it. IMHO, since these enum values are actually passed between user-space and kernel (attr_mask), it's acceptable to expose all enum values. Otherwise, user-space should define all these symbols by by itself (as done today), so why bother introduce only this explicit symbol?
