[Hyper-V] add version to rdma driver to support new method to bind to ND IP interface

[Long Li]

The Linux agent (WALA) checks for module version, then decides how to pass the InfiniBand IP address to the RDMA driver. The new RDMA driver supports discovery of IP by trying to bind to all possible IP address. The driver needs to export the module version to have WALA use the new behavior.

I see this patch has not landed upstream yet. Do you also want it in Yakkety, Zesty and Artful?

I'll build a test kernel and post it shortly.

[Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury)]

I built a Xenial test kernel with your patch The test kernel can be downloaded from:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1689627

Can you test this kernel and see if it resolves this bug?

Thanks in advance!
