This patch has the (likely harmless) side effect of moving
.data.init_task inside the _edata.
It also changes the alignment of .data.init_task from 16384 to
THREAD_SIZE, which can in some configurations be larger than 16384. I
believe that this change fixes a potential bug on those
configurations.

The old RW_DATA_SECTION had INIT_TASK_DATA (which was
more-than-PAGE_SIZE-aligned), followed by a bunch of small alignment
stuff, followed by more PAGE_SIZE-aligned stuff, so you wasted memory
in the middle of .data re-aligning back up to PAGE_SIZE.
This patch sorts the sections by alignment requirements, which should
pack them essentially optimally.

IPoIB: Don't turn on carrier for a non-active port

RDMA/nes: Remove duplicate .ndo_set_mac_address field initialization
IB/mad: Fix lock-lock-timer deadlock in RMPP code
Multicast joins can succeed even if the IB port is down. This happens
when the SM runs on the same port with the requesting port. However,
IPoIB calls netif_carrier_on() when the join of the broadcast group
succeeds, without caring about the state of the IB port. The result
is an IPoIB interface in RUNNING state but without an active IB port
to support it.
If a bonding interface uses this IPoIB interface as a slave it might
not detect that this slave is almost useless and failover
functionality will be damaged. The fix checks the state of the IB
port in the carrier_task before calling netif_carrier_on().

The definition of nes_netdev_ops has initializations of a local function
and eth_mac_addr for its ndo_set_mac_address field. This change uses only
the local function.
