4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Leon Romanovsky <[email protected]> commit a9666c1cae8dbcd1a9aacd08a778bf2a28eea300 upstream. Unsafe global rkey is considered dangerous because it exposes memory registered for all memory in the system. Only users with a QP on the same PD can use the rkey, and generally those QPs will already know the value. However, out of caution, do not expose the value to unprivleged users on the local system. Require CAP_NET_ADMIN instead.
