[PATCH] IB: clean up user access config options
Add a new config option INFINIBAND_USER_MAD to control whether we build ib_umad. Change INFINIBAND_USER_VERBS to INFINIBAND_USER_ACCESS, and have it control ib_ucm and ib_uat as well as ib_uverbs. Signed-off-by: James Lentini <jlentini@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
