Currently the recv ring low water mark is 1/4 the depth. Performance
measurements show that this limits iWARP throughput by flow controlling
the rds-stress senders. Setting it to 1/2 seems to max the T3
performance. I tried even higher levels but that didn't help and it
started to increase the rds thread cpu utilization.

Support for iWARP NICs is implemented as a separate
RDS transport from IB. The code, however, is very
similar to IB (it was forked, basically.) so let's keep
it in one changeset.
The reason for this duplicationis that despite its similarity
to IB, there are a number of places where it has different
semantics. iwarp zcopy support is still under development,
and giving it its own sandbox ensures that IB code isn't
disrupted while iwarp changes. Over time these transports
will re-converge.
