This patchset introduces an RDMA driver for the AMD Pensando adapter.
An AMD Pensando Ethernet device with RDMA capabilities extends its
functionality through an auxiliary device.

The first 6 patches of the series modify the ionic Ethernet driver
to support the RDMA driver. The ionic RDMA driver implementation is
split into the remaining 8 patches.

The user-mode of the driver is being reviewed at:
