I can't see how this is supposed to work, there is no copy at all
of ib_user_sa.h in the tree.
Having to rely on system headers is a sure way to make the build
break most of the time.
What we need is a canonical copy of the kernel heades in the rdma-core
tree, with the option of just pointing to a kernel tree instead.
E.g. by default use headers from rdma-core/kernel/headers, but
optionally allow the build systems to use those from a kernel tree
explicitly specified.
