[ofa-general] [PATCH V3] infiniband/core: Enable loopback ofDR SMP responses from userspace

If ib_mad_recv_done_handler() on a switch device gets a DR SMP with:
D == 1, smp->hop_ptr == 1, smp->dr_slid != IB_LID_PERMISSIVE,
then smi_handle_dr_smp_recv() returns IB_SMI_HANDLE,
smi_check_forward_dr_smp() returns IB_SMI_SEND,
smi_handle_dr_smp_send() does smp->hop_ptr-- and returns IB_SMI_HANDLE,
smi_check_local_smp() returns IB_SMI_DISCARD.

Instead, it should send a copy of the received packet with LRH:DLID
set to the smp->dr_slid.  So I think smi_check_local_returning_smp()
needs to be called before smi_check_local_smp()
and do the appropriate code for forwarding the packet.
Alternatively, we could move the code from
smi_check_local_returning_smp() into smi_check_local_smp() and
let the device's process_mad() function do the forwarding.
