RDMA/include: Replace license text with SPDX tags

The header files in RDMA subsystem are dual licensed and can be
described by simple SPDX tag, so replace all of them at once
together with making them use the same coding style for header
guard defines.

RDMA: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

IB/rdmavt: Handle dereg of inuse MRs properly

A destroy of an MR prior to destroying the QP can cause the following
diagnostic if the QP is referencing the MR being de-registered:

hfi1 0000:05:00.0: hfi1_0: rvt_dereg_mr timeout mr ffff8808562108
00 pd ffff880859b20b00

The solution is to when the a non-zero refcount is encountered when
the MR is destroyed the QPs needs to be iterated looking for QPs in
the same PD as the MR. If rvt_qp_mr_clean() detects any such QP
references the rkey/lkey, the QP needs to be put into an error state
via a call to rvt_qp_error() which will trigger the clean up of any
stuck references.

This solution is as specified in IBTA 1.3 Volume 1 11.2.10.5.

[This is reproduced with the 0.4.9 version of qperf and the rc_bw test]

IB/hfi1, rdmavt: Move SGE state helper routines into rdmavt

To improve code reuse, add small SGE state helper routines to rdmavt_mr.h.
Leverage these in hfi1, including refactoring of hfi1_copy_sge.

IB/rdmavt: Use per-CPU reference count for MRs

Having per-CPU reference count for each MR prevents
cache-line bouncing across the system. Thus, it
prevents bottlenecks. Use per-CPU reference counts
per MR.

The per-CPU reference count for FMRs is used in
atomic mode to allow accurate testing of the busy
state. Other MR types run in per-CPU mode MR until
they're freed.

IB/hfi1: Optimize lkey validation structures

Profiling shows that the key validation is susceptible
to cache line trading when accessing the lkey table.

Fix by separating out the read mostly fields from the write
fields. In addition the shift amount, which is function
of the lkey table size, is precomputed and stored with the
table pointer. Since both the shift and table pointer
are in the same read mostly cacheline, this saves a cache
line in this hot path.

IB/rdmavt: Add mechanism to invalidate MR keys

In order to support extended memory management, add the mechanism to
invalidate MR keys. This includes a flag "lkey_invalid" in the MR data
structure that is to be checked when validating access to the MR via
the associated key, and two utility functions to perform fast memory
registration and memory key invalidate operations.

IB/rdmavt: Break rdma_vt main include header file up

Until all functionality is moved over to rdmavt drivers still need to
access a number of fields in data structures that are predominantly
meant to be used by rdmavt. Once these rdmavt_<ibta_object>.h header
files are no longer being touched by drivers their content should be
moved to rdmavt/<ibta_object>.h. While here move a couple #defines
over to more general IB verbs header files because they fit better.
