Device capability bits are exposing what specific device supports from
HW perspective. Those bits are not dependent on kernel configurations
and RDMA/core should ensure that proper interfaces to users will be
disabled if CONFIG_INFINIBAND_ON_DEMAND_PAGING is not set.

Fixes: f4056bfd8ccf ("IB/core: Add on demand paging caps to ib_uverbs_ex_query_device")
Fixes: 8cdd312cfed7 ("IB/mlx5: Implement the ODP capability query verb")

This one is maybe OK, assuming the driver fills in 0..

But shouldn't this be protected? If the driver has compiled out ODP it
shouldn't set the cap flag...

I see those capabilities as device properties and not as kernel ones.

Current situation looks bad for me, when I have same device which
reports differently information depends on some compilation flag.

If driver was compiled without CONFIG_INFINIBAND_ON_DEMAND_PAGING, the
kernel core code should be compiled without this config set too and core
code wouldn't pass any ODP related verbs/flags.

Thanks
