Profiling indicates that MR validation locking is expensive. The MR
table is largely read-only and is a suitable candidate for RCU locking.
The patch uses RCU locking during validation to eliminate one
lock/unlock during that validation.

A timing issue can occur where qib_mr_dereg can return -EBUSY if the
MR use count is not zero.
This can occur if the MR is de-registered while RDMA read response
packets are being progressed from the SDMA ring. The suspicion is
that the peer sent an RDMA read request, which has already been copied
across to the peer. The peer sees the completion of his request and
then communicates to the responder that the MR is not needed any
longer. The responder tries to de-register the MR, catching some
responses remaining in the SDMA ring holding the MR use count.
The code now uses a get/put paradigm to track MR use counts and
coordinates with the MR de-registration process using a completion
when the count has reached zero. A timeout on the delay is in place
to catch other EBUSY issues.
The reference count protocol is as follows:
- The return to the user counts as 1
- A reference from the lk_table or the qib_ibdev counts as 1.
- Transient I/O operations increase/decrease as necessary
A lot of code duplication has been folded into the new routines
init_qib_mregion() and deinit_qib_mregion(). Additionally, explicit
initialization of fields to zero is now handled by kzalloc().
Also, duplicated code 'while.*num_sge' that decrements reference
counts have been consolidated in qib_put_ss().

An MR reference leak exists when handling UC RDMA writes with
immediate data because we manipulate the reference counts as if the
operation had been a send.
This patch moves the last_imm label so that the RDMA write operations
with immediate data converge at the cq building code. The copy/mr
deref code is now done correctly prior to the branch to last_imm.

We need to use a different loop index for mlx4_counter_alloc() and for

If a port has an M_Key lease set, the M_Key protect bits set to 1, and
a SubnSet arrives with an invalid M_Key, an M_Key mismatch trap is
generated, the lease timer begins as expected, and eventually the
M_Key protect bits will be set back to 0 as per the spec. However, if
any other SMP with an invalid M_Key arrives, the lease timer is expired
and the M_Key protect bits remain in force.
This is not according to to spec. In particular, C14-17 says that
a lease timer that is underway is not affected by protection level
checks (ie, at protection level 1, a SubnGet with a bad M_Key may be
successful, but does not stop the timer), and C14-19 says that the timer
shall stop when a valid M_Key has been received. C14-19 is the only
compliance statement that specifies a stopping condition for the timer.
This behavior is magnified if the port's Master SM LID attribute
points at itself. In that case, the M_Key mismatch trap is sufficient to
expire the timer, and the mkey lease attribute is rendered useless.

When a port first goes active with SMA Set(PortInfo) and reregister
bit set, the driver sends up the reregister event followed by a port
active event.
The problem is that in response to reregister event most apps try to
issue a SA query of some sort, but that fails because port is not
active.
The qib driver needs to a trivial change to correct this behavior.
This issue has been there for a while; however the recent serdes work
has probably made the delay between the reregister event and the
active event larger and hence opened the race far enough so that its
being seen more often.
The patch also changes the clientrereg local to a u8 and saves off the
rereg bit into it. The code following the nested subn_get_portinfo()
now restores that bit per o14-12.2.1 with a logical OR from that copy.

This patch optimizes pio buffer allocation in the kernel.
For qib, kernel pio buffers are used for sending acks. The code to
allocate the buffer would always start at 0 until it found a buffer.
This means that an average of 64 comparisions were done on each
allocate, since the busy bit won't be cleared until the bits are
refreshed when buffers are exhausted.
This patch adds two new fields in the devdata struct, last_pio and
min_kernel_pio. last_pio is the last buffer that was allocated.
min_kernel_pio is the lowest potential available buffer.
min_kernel_pio is modifed as contexts are allocated and deallocted.
