Christoph Hellwig 42f2611cc1 rds: stop using dmapool
RDMA ULPs should only perform DMA through the ib_dma_* API instead of
using the hidden dma_device directly.  In addition using the dma coherent
API family that dmapool is a part of can be very ineffcient on plaforms
that are not DMA coherent.  Switch to use slab allocations and the
ib_dma_* APIs instead.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
