Software iWARP Stack - take 2

Bart, Roland, all,

many thanks for the suggestions and input. I am happy
to see interest in SoftiWARP.

In the hope to contribute something usefull, I will now
send a complete new set of patches against net-next.
It adds software iWARP support on top of TCP kernel sockets
and fits into the linux-rdma kernel stack.

Major changes to the previous (first) posting from October last
year include some kernel client support, restructuring of the
connection management code and general code cleanup.
I hope all issues which were rised after the first posting are
resolved. Thanks again for the valuable feedback.

Please take the current code contribution as work in progress.
Any comment and input is highly appreciated.
