That is the right branch, but there are three series reworking write,
only the first two are applied, the last one still in patchworks
didn't get applied yet..

And this patch has to go after the prior three for all the bits to
work properly, and as a uapi change it should ideally wait for the
corresponding rdma-core patch to be posted..
