- Rename struct ehca_mr fields to clearly distinguish between kernel
and HW page size.
- Sort struct ehca_mr_pginfo into a common part and a union containing
specific fields for physical, user and fast MR

Instead of one error mapping function for each potential error source
in ehca_mrmw.c, use a centralized function that handles all cases,
saving a three-figure line count.

Set the return code of ehca_register_mr() to ENOMEM if the corresponding
firmware call fails due to out of resources. Some other error codes
were explicitly mapped to EINVAL -- just remove those cases so they
get mapped to the default case, which already returns EINVAL anyway.

Export ib_umem_get()/ib_umem_release() and put low-level drivers in
control of when to call ib_umem_get() to pin and DMA map userspace,
rather than always calling it in ib_uverbs_reg_mr() before calling the
low-level driver's reg_user_mr method.
Also move these functions to be in the ib_core module instead of
ib_uverbs, so that driver modules using them do not depend on
ib_uverbs.
This has a number of advantages:
- It is better design from the standpoint of making generic code a
library that can be used or overridden by device-specific code as
the details of specific devices dictate.
- Drivers that do not need to pin userspace memory regions do not
need to take the performance hit of calling ib_mem_get(). For
example, although I have not tried to implement it in this patch,
the ipath driver should be able to avoid pinning memory and just
use copy_{to,from}_user() to access userspace memory regions.
- Buffers that need special mapping treatment can be identified by
the low-level driver. For example, it may be possible to solve
some Altix-specific memory ordering issues with mthca CQs in
userspace by mapping CQ buffers with extra flags.
- Drivers that need to pin and DMA map userspace memory for things
other than memory regions can use ib_umem_get() directly, instead
of hacks using extra parameters to their reg_phys_mr method. For
example, the mlx4 driver that is pending being merged needs to pin
and DMA map QP and CQ buffers, but it does not need to create a
memory key for these buffers. So the cleanest solution is for mlx4
to call ib_umem_get() in the create_qp and create_cq methods.

Here is a patch for ehca to use proper flag, ie. GFP_ATOMIC
resp. GFP_KERNEL, when calling get_zeroed_page() to prevent "Bug:
scheduling while atomic...". This error does not cause a kernel panic
but makes ipoib un-usable afterwards. It is reproducible on
2.6.20-rc4 if one does ifconfig down during a flood ping test. I have
not observed this error in earlier releases incl. 2.6.20-rc1.
This error occurs when a qp event/irq is received and ehca event
handler allocates a control block/page to obtain HCA error data block.
Use of GFP_ATOMIC when in interrupt context prevents this issue.

Assure 4K alignment for firmware control blocks in 64K page mode,
because kzalloc()'s result address might not be 4K aligned if 64K
pages are enabled. Thus, we introduce wrappers called
ehca_{alloc,free}_fw_ctrlblock(), which use a slab cache for objects
with 4K length and 4K alignment in order to alloc/free firmware
control blocks in 64K page mode. In 4K page mode those wrappers just
are defines of get_zeroed_page() and free_page().
