[openib-general] [RFC] [PATCH 2/7] ib_multicast 2.6.20: add ib_multicast module to track join requests from the same port

Based on the feedback, I've made the following changes to this patch:

* Remove the multicast APIs from ib_sa.h.  Multicast definitions are relocated 
from ib_sa to the ib_multicast module.  (This provides cleaner encapsulation of 
the multicast services.)
* Added support for non-equal MTU, rate, and packet lifetime selectors.
* Added documentation around status values returned in the callback.
* Added client register/unregister routines.

Please let me know if I missed anything, or if there's disagreement with these 
changes (like moving the multicast definitions).  I should have updated patches 
next week.
