From: Parav Pandit <parav@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
This is a preparation patch to provide isolation of rdma device in a
network namespace.
As first step, make rdma device visible only in init net namespace.
Subsequent patch will enable rdma device visibility back in multiple
net namespaces using compat ib_core_device device/sysfs tree.
Given that ib subsystem depends on net stack, it needs to be
initialized after netdev stack and since it support devices, it needs
to be initialized before device subsystem; therefore, change initcall
sequence to fs_initcall, so that when ib_core is compiled in kernel
image, right init sequence is followed.
