The conversion itself is simple: add a markup for the
title of this file and add markups for both tables.
Yet, the big table here with IOCTL numbers is badly formatted:
on several lines, the "Include File" column has some values that
are bigger than the reserved space there.
Also, on several places, a comment was misplaced at the "Include
File" space.
So, most of the work here is to actually ensure that each field
will be properly fixed.
Also worth to mention that some URLs have the asterisk character
on it. Well, Sphinx has an issue with asterisks in the middle
of an string. As this is URL, use the alternate format: %2A.
As a side effect of this patch, it is now a lot easier to see that
some reserved ioctl numbers are missing the include files
where it is supposed to be used.
PS.: While this is part of a subdir, I opted to convert this
single file alone, as this file has a potential of conflicts,
as most subsystem maintainers touch it.

Add EFA driver ID to the IOCTL interface uapi. This patch also adds
unspecified node/transport type that will be used by EFA (usnic is left
unchanged as it's already part of our ABI).

Methods sometimes need to get a flexible set of IDRs and not a strict set
as can be achieved today by the conventional IDR attribute. Add a new
IDRS_ARRAY attribute to the generic uverbs ioctl layer.
IDRS_ARRAY points to array of idrs of the same object type and same access
rights, only write and read are supported.

Our ABI for write() uses a s32 for FDs and a u32 for IDRs, but internally
we ended up implicitly casting these ABI values into an 'int'. For ioctl()
we use a s64 for FDs and a u64 for IDRs, again casting to an int.
The various casts to int are all missing range checks which can cause
userspace values that should be considered invalid to be accepted.
Fix this by making the generic lookup routine accept a s64, which does not
truncate the write API's u32/s32 or the ioctl API's s64. Then push the
detailed range checking down to the actual type implementations to be
shared by both interfaces.
Finally, change the copy of the uobj->id to sign extend into a s64, so eg,
if we ever wish to return a negative value for a FD it is carried
properly.
This ensures that userspace values are never weirdly interpreted due to
the various trunctations and everything that is really out of range gets
an EINVAL.

Methods sometimes need to get one attribute out of a group of
pre-defined attributes. This is an enum-like behavior. Since
this is a common requirement, we add a new ENUM attribute to the
generic uverbs ioctl() layer. This attribute is embedded in methods,
like any other attributes we currently have. ENUM attributes point to
an array of standard UVERBS_ATTR_PTR_IN. The user-space encodes the
enum's attribute id in the id field and the internal PTR_IN attr id in
the enum_data.elem_id field. This ENUM attribute could be shared by
several attributes and it can get UVERBS_ATTR_SPEC_F_MANDATORY flag,
stating this attribute must be supported by the kernel, like any other
attribute.

Extending uverbs_ioctl header with driver_id and another reserved
field. driver_id should be used in order to identify the driver.
Since every driver could have its own parsing tree, this is necessary
for strace support.
Downstream patches take off the EXPERIMENTAL flag from the ioctl() IB
support and thus we add some reserved fields for future usage.

Use macros to make names consistent in ioctl() uAPI:
The ioctl() uAPI works with object-method hierarchy. The method part
also states which handler should be executed when this method is called
from user-space. Therefore, we need to tie method, method's id, method's
handler and the object owning this method together.
Previously, this was done through explicit developer chosen names.
This makes grepping the code harder. Changing the method's name,
method's handler and object's name to be automatically generated based
on the ids.
The headers are split in a way so they be included and used by
user-space. One header strictly contains structures that are used
directly by user-space applications, where another header is used for
internal library (i.e. libibverbs) to form the ioctl() commands.
Other header simply contains the required general command structure.
