Thanks Santosh for your review.

David,
Is it ok to route those patches through RDMA tree given the fact that
we are touching a lot of files in drivers/infiniband/* ?

There is no conflict between netdev and RDMA versions of RDS, but to be
on safe side, I'll put all this code to mlx5-next tree.

Thanks
