Honggang Li 8c490669de RDMA/IPoIB: Replace netdev_priv with ipoib_priv for ipoib_get_link_ksettings
ipoib_dev_init accesses the wrong private data for the IPoIB device.
Commit cd565b4b51 (IB/IPoIB: Support acceleration options callbacks)
changed ipoib_priv from being identical to netdev_priv to being an
area inside of, but not the same pointer as, the netdev_priv pointer.
As such, the struct we want is the ipoib_priv area, not the netdev_priv
area, so use the right accessor, otherwise we kernel panic.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
