io-mapping: Specify mapping size for io_mapping_map_wc()

The ioremap() hidden behind the io_mapping_map_wc() convenience helper
can be used for remapping multiple pages. Extend the helper so that
future callers can use it for larger ranges.

net/mlx4_core: Set UAR page size to 4KB regardless of system page size

problem description:

The current code sets UAR page size equal to system page size.
The ConnectX-3 and ConnectX-3 Pro HWs require minimum 128 UAR pages.
The mlx4 kernel drivers are not loaded if there is less than 128 UAR pages.

solution:

Always set UAR page to 4KB. This allows more UAR pages if the OS
has PAGE_SIZE larger than 4KB. For example, PowerPC kernel use 64KB
system page size, with 4MB uar region, there are 4MB/2/64KB = 32
uars (half for uar, half for blueflame). This does not meet minimum 128
UAR pages requirement. With 4KB UAR page, there are 4MB/2/4KB = 512 uars
which meet the minimum requirement.

Note that only codes in mlx4_core that deal with firmware know that uar
page size is 4KB. Codes that deal with usr page in cq and qp context
(mlx4_ib, mlx4_en and part of mlx4_core) still have the same assumption
that uar page size equals to system page size.

Note that with this implementation, on 64KB system page size kernel, there
are 16 uars per system page but only one uars is used. The other 15
uars are ignored because of the above assumption.

Regarding SR-IOV, mlx4_core in hypervisor will set the uar page size
to 4KB and mlx4_core code in virtual OS will obtain the uar page size from
firmware.

Regarding backward compatibility in SR-IOV, if hypervisor has this new code,
the virtual OS must be updated. If hypervisor has old code, and the virtual
OS has this new code, the new code will be backward compatible with the
old code. If the uar size is big enough, this new code in VF continues to
work with 64 KB uar page size (on PowerPc kernel). If the uar size does not
meet 128 uars requirement, this new code not loaded in VF and print the same
error message as the old code in Hypervisor.

mlx4_core: Roll back round robin bitmap allocation commit for CQs, SRQs, and MPTs

Commit f4ec9e9 "mlx4_core: Change bitmap allocator to work in round-robin fashion"
introduced round-robin allocation (via bitmap) for all resources which allocate
via a bitmap.

Round robin allocation is desirable for mcgs, counters, pd's, UARs, and xrcds.
These are simply numbers, with no involvement of ICM memory mapping.

Round robin is required for QPs, since we had a problem with immediate
reuse of a 24-bit QP number (commit f4ec9e9).

However, for other resources which use the bitmap allocator and involve
mapping ICM memory -- MPTs, CQs, SRQs -- round-robin is not desirable.

What happens in these cases is the following:

ICM memory is allocated and mapped in chunks of 256K.

Since the resource allocation index goes up monotonically, the allocator
will eventually require mapping a new chunk. Now, chunks are also unmapped
when their reference count goes back to zero. Thus, if a single app is
running and starts/exits frequently we will have the following situation:

When the app starts, a new chunk must be allocated and mapped.

When the app exits, the chunk reference count goes back to zero, and the
chunk is unmapped and freed. Therefore, the app must pay the cost of allocation
and mapping of ICM memory each time it runs (although the price is paid only when
allocating the initial entry in the new chunk).

For apps which allocate MPTs/SRQs/CQs and which operate as described above,
this presented a performance problem.

We therefore roll back the round-robin allocator modification for MPTs, CQs, SRQs.

net/mlx4_en: Datapath structures are allocated per NUMA node

For each RX/TX ring and its CQ, allocation is done on a NUMA node that
corresponds to the core that the data structure should operate on.
The assumption is that the core number is reflected by the ring index.
The affected allocations are the ring/CQ data structures,
the TX/RX info and the shared HW/SW buffer.
For TX rings, each core has rings of all UPs.

net/mlx4_core: Fix endianness bug in set_param_l

The set_param_l function assumes casting a u64 pointer to a u32 pointer
allows to access the lower 32bits, but it results in writing the upper
32 bits on big endian systems.

The fixed function reads the upper 32 bits of the 64 argument, and or's
them with the 32 bits of the 32-bit value passed to the function.

Since this is now a "read-modify-write" operation, we got many
"unintialized variable" warnings which needed to be fixed as well.

the HCA uses only 17 bits for the PD. The remaining 7 high-order bits
