mainlining shenanigans

Place the associated RPC transaction's XID in the upper 32 bits of each RDMA segment's rdma_offset field. There are two reasons to do this: - The R_key only has 8 bits that are different from registration to registration. The XID adds more uniqueness to each RDMA segment to reduce the likelihood of a software bug on the server reading from or writing into memory it's not supposed to. - On-the-wire RDMA Read and Write requests do not otherwise carry any identifier that matches them up to an RPC. The XID in the upper 32 bits will act as an eye-catcher in network captures.

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.
