You will need to add some sort of "if qp tpye" for ib_create_qp_uverbs() callers,
because they always provide udata != NULL. 

After this series, the callers look like this:

 1438         qp = ib_create_qp_uverbs(device, pd, &attr, &attrs->driver_udata, obj);
                                                          ^^^^^^^^^ not NULL

So instead of bothering callers, I implemented it here with one "if".
Sorry if my mail was confusing.  I don't want it in the callers, I
want it as deep down in the stack as possible instead of having the
strange wrapper.
In fact ib_create_qp_user already sets udata to NULL for IB_QPT_XRC_TGT,
and _ib_create_qp/create_qp ignores the caller if the udata is NULL.
So I think you can just remove the wrapper and we're already fine.
