3.2.81-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let

------------------
From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgunthorpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit e6bd18f57aad1a2d1ef40e646d03ed0f2515c9e3 upstream.
The drivers/infiniband stack uses write() as a replacement for
bi-directional ioctl(). This is not safe. There are ways to
trigger write calls that result in the return structure that
is normally written to user space being shunted off to user
specified kernel memory instead.

This is breaking the build. There is no rdma/ib.h .
This backported patch adds it.
The file was created by:

It looks like your patch queue tester doesn't account for patches that
create new files.
oops... after applying your combined diff I added them to git with
git add -u , and that doesnot take care of new files. sorry for the
noise. I should have been more careful.
But the other failure is not noise. :)
