Those patches add new RAW_ETH QP type to the kernel in order to support
creation of RAW Ethernet packets for iWARP and RDMAOE protocols.
The reason for new type is that RAW_ETY QP  already used by Mellanox
drivers for another purpose. Another reason, that there is RAW_ETH QP
type already present in userspace, but it mapped to RAW_ETY type in the
kernel and cause to confusion when dealing with code.
