Subject: [RFC v3 09/11] IB/hfi1: HFI_VNIC RDMA netdev support

Add support to create and free HFI_VNIC rdma netdev devices.
Implement netstack interface functionality including xmit_skb, receive side
NAPI etc. Also implement rdma netdev control functions.

All code in this particular patch belong to netdev VNIC ULP driver.
There is nothing much that appears specific to IB/RDMA that makes drivers/infiniband/hw as better place to be.
It has netdev tx, rx, napi, stats in this patch.
If VNIC is a ULP than most of the VNIC specific code should reside in the ULP directory or drivers/net/ethernet ?
