[PATCH] IB/core: Print error when umem fails due to locked memory limit.

From: j . glisse
Date: Thu Oct 15 2015 - 11:57:30 EST


From: JÃrÃme Glisse <jglisse@xxxxxxxxxx>

It can be rather tedious to find why userspace is failing when only
thing kernel report is -ENOMEM. This add an error message so that
user can figure out why they are getting -ENOMEM.
