ibv_advise_mr(3) has been available only in mlx5, but it is now possible to use it with rxe because the ODP feature was already merged.
This change enables the library API for user-space applications.

There are kernel-side patches to handle prefetching requests in the kernel:
cf. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rdma/[email protected]/T/#t
(updated/v3)

Add a new handler to rxe so that the kernel module can handle the requests
from user-space applications.
