From: Matan Barak <[email protected]>

When creating the IPoIB UD QP, provide hint to the low level driver
that the QP should support flow-steering. This means that privileged
user space applications could steer TCP/IP IPoIB traffic from the
network stack, in a similar manner done with Ethernet RAW_PACKET QPs.

The hint is provided through new QP creation flag called NETIF_QP.
