Wouldnt they be some overlap between the user-space and kernel driver? Or is
it expected that the common structures (even device specific ones) be moved to
the ABI file?

Yes, even device specific structures must be in the abi file. Anything
that is used with copy_to_user/copy_from_user/etc.

For the mlx4 driver I see that the structures in include/linux/mlx4/qp.h
and in libmlx4/src/wqe.h are similar.

We are trying to clean exactly that sort of stuff up, please try not
to add more.
