IB/mlx5: Implement fragmented completion queue (CQ)
The current implementation of create CQ requires contiguous
memory, such requirement is problematic once the memory is
fragmented or the system is low in memory, it causes for
failures in dma_zalloc_coherent().
This patch implements new scheme of fragmented CQ to overcome
this issue by introducing new type: 'struct mlx5_frag_buf_ctrl'
to allocate fragmented buffers, rather than contiguous ones.
Base the Completion Queues (CQs) on this new fragmented buffer.
It fixes following crashes:
kworker/29:0: page allocation failure: order:6, mode:0x80d0
CPU: 29 PID: 8374 Comm: kworker/29:0 Tainted: G OE 3.10.0
Workqueue: ib_cm cm_work_handler [ib_cm]
