rdma_cm: Add default translation from ToS to SL

Add a default translation from for ToS to SL for rdma_cm over RoCE. The 
default
translation is dictated by the value of the module paramter, def_prec2sl. 
Any
value of ToS will be translated to this value. In the future we will add a 
more
generic translation table.

RDMA/ucma: Add option to manually set IB path

Export rdma_set_ib_paths to user space to allow applications to
manually set the IB path used for connections.  This allows
alternative ways for a user space application or library to obtain
path record information, including retrieving path information
from cached data, avoiding direct interaction with the IB SA.
The IB SA is a single, centralized entity that can limit scaling
on large clusters running MPI applications.

Future changes to the rdma cm can expand on this framework to
support the full range of features allowed by the IB CM, such as
separate forward and reverse paths and APM.

4. Bug fixes

I would like to add support for IB ACM path resolution (i.e. user space path
record caching) into the 1.5.2 release.  Vlad pulled in the necessary kernel
patch from 2.6.33 a few days ago.  All other changes are in user space -- an
updated librdmacm release and a release of ibacm -- and must be enabled to be
used.

I hope to complete testing this week.
