The ib_cm can incorrectly detect a stale connection (a new connection
request for a QPN that is already connected) as a duplicate connection
request.  Separate the handling of potential duplicate REQs from stale
connections.

The IB CM uses an idr for local id allocations, with a running counter
as start_id.  This fails to generate distinct ids if

1. An id is constantly created and destroyed
2. A chunk of ids just beyond the current next_id value is occupied

This in turn leads to an increased chance of connection request being
mis-detected as a duplicate, sometimes for several retries, until
next_id gets past the block of allocated ids. This has been observed
in practice.

As a fix, remember the last id allocated and start immediately above it.
This also fixes a problem with the old code, where next_id might
overflow and become negative.

<title>Detach sched.h from mm.h</title>

<id>e8edc6e03a5c8562dc70a6d969f732bdb355a7e7</id>
<content type='text'>
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

Cross-compile tested on

	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
	alpha alpha-up
	arm
	i386 i386-up i386-defconfig i386-allnoconfig
	ia64 ia64-up
	m68k
	mips
	parisc parisc-up
	powerpc powerpc-up
	s390 s390-up
	sparc sparc-up
	sparc64 sparc64-up
	um-x86_64
	x86_64 x86_64-up x86_64-defconfig x86_64-allnoconfig

as well as my two usual configs.

<title>RDMA/cma: Add check to validate that cm_id is bound to a device</title>

<content type='text'>
Several checks in the rdma_cm check against the state of the
cm_id, but only to validate that the cm_id is bound to an underlying
transport specific CM and an RDMA device.  Make the check explicit
in what we're trying to check for, since we're not synchronizing
against the cm_id state.

This will allow a user to disconnect a cm_id or reject a connection
after receiving a device removal event.

<content type='text'>
The cma_iw_handler needs to validate the state of the rdma_cm_id before
processing a new connection request to ensure that a device removal is
not already being processed for the same rdma_cm_id.  Without the state
check, the user can receive simultaneous callbacks for the same cm_id, or
a callback after they've destroyed the cm_id.
