Just going through the conflicts, I see commit 7193a141eb74 ("IB/mlx4:
Set VF to read from QP counters"), and wonder...

Is that code really supposed to fall through to the
infiniband-over-ethernet case when the link layer is
IB_LINK_LAYER_INFINIBAND but it's a slave?

The commit message is not in the least helpful.

And this is a bug indeed.

Under IB links, we should use the the infiniband-over-ethernet flow only for one
specific case (reading link performance counters by SRIOV VFs) and nothing else.

I sent a fix, https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/6675921/

Or.
