Clean up: struct rpcrdma_mw was named after Memory Windows, but xprtrdma no longer supports a Memory Window registration mode. Rename rpcrdma_mw and its fields to reduce confusion and make the code more sensible to read. Renaming "mw" was suggested by Tom Talpey, the author of the original xprtrdma implementation. It's a good idea, but I haven't done this until now because it's a huge diffstat for no benefit other than code readability. However, I'm about to introduce static trace points that expose a few of xprtrdma's internal data structures. They should make sense in the trace report, and it's reasonable to treat trace points as a kernel API contract which might be difficult to change later. While I'm churning things up, two additional changes: - rename variables unhelpfully called "r" to "mr", to improve code clarity, and - rename the MR-related helper functions using the form "rpcrdma_mr_<verb>", to be consistent with other areas of the code.

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.
