8cbd9606a6 RDS: Use spinlock to protect 64b value update on 32b archs
We have a 64bit value that needs to be set atomically.
This is easy and quick on all 64bit archs, and can also be done
on x86/32 with set_64bit() (uses cmpxchg8b). However other
32b archs don't have this.

I actually changed this to the current state in preparation for
mainline because the old way (using a spinlock on 32b) resulted in
unsightly #ifdefs in the code. But obviously, being correct takes
precedence.

fcd8b7c0ec RDS: Add iWARP support
Support for iWARP NICs is implemented as a separate
RDS transport from IB. The code, however, is very
similar to IB (it was forked, basically.) so let's keep
it in one changeset.

The reason for this duplicationis that despite its similarity
to IB, there are a number of places where it has different
semantics. iwarp zcopy support is still under development,
and giving it its own sandbox ensures that IB code isn't
disrupted while iwarp changes. Over time these transports
will re-converge.
