This is useful to painlessly test if the kernel headers work with the build. All the kernel header shimming is moved into buildlib/RDMA_LinuxHeaders.cmake, new headers can be added to the list. Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgunthorpe@obsidianresearch.com>
Detect if the distro's rdma_netlink.h is new enough, if not replace it with the built in copy, and eliminate the two loose copies of the header. The built in copy is from v4.8 Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgunthorpe@obsidianresearch.com>
…b_user_sa.h Using the system header from the kernel is now the expected way to export definitions to user space. Tree wide update to shift from the local header and deal with the name changes. Unfortunately this was exposed as a public installed header, for now drop in a compat header with a #warning not to use it. Some day we can delete it. Apps are expected to also migrate to rdma/ib_user_sa.h as their source for this information. Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgunthorpe@obsidianresearch.com>

Start migrating to using the kernel UAPI header directly, as they exist in 4.8
These are some of the things that are easy to fix, and the basic infrastructure to do it.
