smc: switch to usage of IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY
Currently, SMC enables remote access to physical memory when a user
has successfully configured and established an SMC-connection until ten
minutes after the last SMC connection is closed. Because this is considered
a security risk, drivers are supposed to use IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY in
such a case.
This patch changes the current SMC code to use IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY.
This improves user awareness, but does not remove the security risk itself.
