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.

Enable callers of mlx4_assign_eq to supply a pointer to cpu_rmap.
If supplied, the assigned IRQ is tracked using rmap infrastructure.

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

Moving to regular Completion Queue implementation (not collapsed)
Completion for each transmitted packet is written to new entry.

Fixed a bug where ring size change caused insufficient memory

Until now only RX rings used irq per ring
and TX used only one per port.
>From now on, both of them will use the
irq per ring while RX & TX ring[i] will
use the same irq.

Moves the Mellanox driver into drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/ and
make the necessary Kconfig and Makefile changes.
