xprtrdma: Remove ALLPHYSICAL memory registration mode
No HCA or RNIC in the kernel tree requires the use of ALLPHYSICAL. ALLPHYSICAL advertises in the clear on the network fabric an R_key that is good for all of the client's memory. No known exploit exists, but theoretically any user on the server can use that R_key on the client's QP to read or update any part of the client's memory. ALLPHYSICAL exposes the client to server bugs, including: o base/bounds errors causing data outside the i/o buffer to be accessed o RDMA access after reply causing data corruption and/or integrity fail ALLPHYSICAL can't protect application memory regions from server update after a local signal or soft timeout has terminated an RPC. ALLPHYSICAL chunks are no larger than a page. Special cases to handle small chunks and long chunk lists have been a source of implementation complexity and bugs.
