The IB SA tracks multicast join/leave requests on a per port basis and
does not do any reference counting: if two users of the same port join
the same group, and one leaves that group, then the SA will remove the
port from the group even though there is one user who wants to stay a
member left. Therefore, in order to support multiple users of the
same multicast group from the same port, we need to perform reference
counting locally.
To do this, add an multicast submodule to ib_sa to perform reference
counting of multicast join/leave operations. Modify ib_ipoib (the
only in-kernel user of multicast) to use the new interface.

Move the InfiniBand headers from drivers/infiniband/include to include/rdma.
This allows InfiniBand-using code to live elsewhere, and lets us remove the
ugly EXTRA_CFLAGS include path from the InfiniBand Makefiles.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
