[PATCH 1/3] IB/ipoib: Use dev_port to expose network interface port numbers

[Arseny Maslennikov <ar@cs.msu.ru>]

Some InfiniBand network devices have multiple ports on the same PCI
function. This initializes the `dev_port' sysfs field of those
network interfaces with their port number.

The use of `dev_id' was considered correct until Linux 3.15,
when another field, `dev_port', was defined for this particular
purpose and `dev_id' was reserved for distinguishing stacked ifaces
(e.g: VLANs) with the same hardware address as their parent device.

Similar fixes to net/mlx4_en and many other drivers, which started
exporting this information through `dev_id' before 3.15, were accepted
into the kernel 4 years ago.
See 76a066f2a2a0268b565459c417b59724b5a3197b, commit message:
`net/mlx4_en: Expose port number through sysfs'.
