Not exported yet?

Not yet, I want to minimize the UAPI export from kernel before user-space
part is accepted.

I don't get it. If you need it in userspace, you should expose it. Why
to wait? What am I missing?

Mainly my attempt to avoid constant rebasing for four series at the
same time. One for rdmatool, one for RDMA netlink, one for RDMA UAPI changes
and one for rdma-core [1] which should reuse those exported structures too.
