[PATCH resend] rdma/cma: Disallow binding rdma endpoints to 127.0.0.1.

[PATCH resend] rdma/cma: Disallow binding rdma endpoints to 127.0.0.1.

[Steve Wise]

Here is a <not tested> patch that I think removes support for binding
to 127.0.0.1.  Sean will this work?

If we agree to do this for 2.6.33, then I'll build/test this and resubmit.

rdma/cma: Disallow binding rdma endpoints to 127.0.0.1.

Currently this functionality breaks openmpi.  Once openmpi is fixed to
correctly ignore 127.0.0.1 as a valid external rdma address, we can
re-enable this functionality.
