The commit referenced below performs additional checking on devices used for DMA. Specifically it checks that device->dma_mask != NULL Rdma_rxe uses this device when pinning MR memory but did not set the value of dma_mask. In fact rdma_rxe does not perform any DMA operations so the value is never used but is checked. This patch gives dma_mask a valid value extracted from the device backing the ndev used by rxe. Without this patch rdma_rxe does not function. N.B. This patch needs to be applied before the recent fix to add back IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_POST_SEND to uverbs_cmd_mask. Dennis Dallesandro reported that Parav's similar patch did not apply cleanly to rxe. This one does to for-next head of tree as of yesterday.
