Hoang-Nam Nguyen 6bbcea0d42 IB/ehca: Change query_port() to return LINK_UP instead UNKNOWN
Set the port phys state as returned from ehca_query_port() to LINK_UP.
ehca actually represents a logical HCA, whose phys/link state always
is LINK_UP.

Hoang-Nam Nguyen f2d9136133 IB/ehca: Use proper GFP_ flags for get_zeroed_page()
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.

Hoang-Nam Nguyen 7e28db5d8f IB/ehca: Assure 4K alignment for firmware control blocks
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().
