The patch allows to enable/disable HW timestamping for incoming and/or
outgoing packets. It adds and initializes all structs and callbacks
needed by kernel TS API.
To enable/disable HW timestamping appropriate ioctl should be used.
Currently HWTSTAMP_FILTER_ALL/NONE and HWTSAMP_TX_ON/OFF only are
supported.
When enabling TS on receive flow - VLAN stripping will be disabled.
Also were made all relevant changes in RX/TX flows to consider TS request
and plant HW timestamps into relevant structures.
mlx4_ib was fixed to compile with new mlx4_cq_alloc() signature.

ConnectX-3 devices can use either 64- or 32-byte completion queue
entries (CQEs) and event queue entries (EQEs). Using 64-byte
EQEs/CQEs performs better because each entry is aligned to a complete
cacheline. This patch queries the HCA's capabilities, and if it
supports 64-byte CQEs and EQES the driver will configure the HW to
work in 64-byte mode.
The 32-byte vs 64-byte mode is global per HCA and not per CQ or EQ.
Since this mode is global, userspace (libmlx4) must be updated to work
with the configured CQE size, and guests using SR-IOV virtual
functions need to know both EQE and CQE size.
In case one of the 64-byte CQE/EQE capabilities is activated, the
patch makes sure that older guest drivers that use the QUERY_DEV_FUNC
command (e.g as done in mlx4_core of Linux 3.3..3.6) will notice that
they need an update to be able to work with the PPF. This is done by
changing the returned pf_context_behaviour not to be zero any more. In
case none of these capabilities is activated that value remains zero
and older guest drivers can run OK.
The SRIOV related flow is as follows
1. the PPF does the detection of the new capabilities using
QUERY_DEV_CAP command.
2. the PPF activates the new capabilities using INIT_HCA.
3. the VF detects if the PPF activated the capabilities using
QUERY_HCA, and if this is the case activates them for itself too.
Note that the VF detects that it must be aware to the new PF behaviour
using QUERY_FUNC_CAP. Steps 1 and 2 apply also for native mode.
User space notification is done through a new field introduced in
struct mlx4_ib_ucontext which holds device capabilities for which user
space must take action. This changes the binary interface so the ABI
towards libmlx4 exposed through uverbs is bumped from 3 to 4 but only
when **needed** i.e. only when the driver does use 64-byte CQEs or
future device capabilities which must be in sync by user space. This
practice allows to work with unmodified libmlx4 on older devices (e.g
A0, B0) which don't support 64-byte CQEs.
In order to keep existing systems functional when they update to a
newer kernel that contains these changes in VF and userspace ABI, a
module parameter enable_64b_cqe_eqe must be set to enable 64-byte
mode; the default is currently false.

Use RFS infrastructure and flow steering in HW to keep CPU
affinity of rx interrupts and application per TCP stream.
A flow steering filter is added to the HW whenever the RFS
ndo callback is invoked by core networking code.
Because the invocation takes place in interrupt context, the
actual setup of HW is done using workqueue. Whenever new filter
is added, the driver checks for expiry of existing filters.
Since there's window in time between the point where the core
RFS code invoked the ndo callback, to the point where the HW
is configured from the workqueue context, the 2nd, 3rd etc
packets from that stream will cause the net core to invoke
the callback again and again.
To prevent inefficient/double configuration of the HW, the filters
are kept in a database which is indexed using hash function to enable
fast access.

Moving to interrupts instead of polling fpr TX completions
Avoiding situations where skb can be held in by the driver for
a long time (till timer expires).
The change is also necessary for supporting BQL.
Removing comp_lock that was required because we could handle TX
completions from several contexts: Interrupts, timer, polling.
Now there is only interrupts
