The following patch series proposes:

- The API and core changes needed to implement the IB BMMR and 
  iWARP equivalient memory extensions.

- cxgb3 support.

Changes since version 2:
	- added device attribute max_fast_reg_page_list_len
	- added cxgb3 patch

Changes since version 1:
	- ib_alloc_mr() -> ib_alloc_fast_reg_mr()
	- pbl_depth -> max_page_list_len
	- page_list_len -> max_page_list_len where it makes sense
	- int -> unsigned int where needed
	- fbo -> first_byte_offset
	- added page size and page_list_len to fast_reg union in ib_send_wr
	- rearranged work request fast_reg union of ib_send_wr to pack it
	- dropped remove_access parameter from ib_alloc_fast_reg_mr()
	- IB_DEVICE_MM_EXTENSIONS -> IB_DEVICE_MEM_MGT_EXTENSIONS
	- compiled

Steve.
