rdma: Move RDMA UAPI header file to be under RDMA responsibility

PATCH 1/1 rdma: Move RDMA UAPI header file to be under RDMA responsibility
From: Leon Romanovsky <[email protected]>
In iproute2 package, the updates of UAPIs files are performed after the needed feature lands in kernel's net-next tree.
Such development flow created delays to the rdma tool developers, who uses rdma-next tree as a basis for their work.
Move RDMA UAPI file to be under rdma/ folder, so whole responsibility of syncing this file will be on them.

Hey Leon, so how do I change rdma/include/uapi/rdma_netlink.h now for my series [1]? Do I just make the changes? Or is there some other process?

I don't think that we need "process" yet, simply copy from kernel.
