    IB/{rxe,core,rdmavt}: Fix kernel crash for reg MR · d9703650
    Parav Pandit authored
    This patch fixes below kernel crash on memory registration for rxe
    and other transport drivers which has dma_ops extension.
    
    IB/core invokes ib_map_sg_attrs() in generic manner with dma attributes
    which is used by mlx5 and mthca adapters.  However in doing so it
    ignored honoring dma_ops extension of software based transports for
    sg map/unmap operation.  This results in calling dma_map_sg_attrs of
    hardware virtual device resulting in crash for null reference.
    
    We extend the core to support sg_map/unmap_attrs and transport drivers
    to implement those dma_ops callback functions.
    
    Verified usign perftest applications.
