Subject: [PATCH 06/18] IB/hfi1: Remove multiple device cdev
Git-commit: 0eb626590dcf1280c6d01a784e9d53a3de6d5e8e
Patch-mainline: v4.7-rc1
References: FATE#321231 FATE#321473, bsc#1040698

hfi1 current exports a cdev that can be used to target all of the hfi's
in the system. However there is a problem with this approach in
that the devices could be on different subnets. This is a problem that
user space can figure out and explicitly tell the driver on which device
to create a context.

Remove the multi-purpose cdev leaving a dedicated cdev for each port.
Also remove the striping capability that is dependent upon the user
choosing the multi-purpose cdev. It is now up to user space to determine
how to stripe contexts.
