The primary goal of this series is to extend mlx5 packet pacing (rate
limit) beyond raw packet QPs to cover UD and UC QPs while keeping the
IB core free of vendor-specific policy for non-standard modify
attributes.

Today, IB_QP_RATE_LIMIT is restricted by the IB core qp_state_table
to RC QPs only. It is also the only non-standard modify QP attribute,
but as rate limit support expands across vendors, and as additional
non-standard attributes are likely to follow, centralizing such policy
in the core becomes impractical. Each driver is better positioned to
enforce its own supported QP types and transitions over non-standard
attributes. The series therefore removes IB_QP_RATE_LIMIT from the
qp_state_table and modifies the affected vendor drivers to validate the
attribute locally, preserving their existing behavior.

Applied, thanks!
