net/mlx4_core: Fix number of EQs used in ICM initialisation
In SRIOV mode, the number of EQs used when computing the total ICM size was incorrect. To fix this, we do the following: 1. We add a new structure to mlx4_dev, mlx4_phys_caps, to contain physical HCA capabilities. The PPF uses the phys capabilities when it computes things like ICM size. The dev_caps structure will then contain the paravirtualized values, making bookkeeping much easier in SRIOV mode. We add a structure rather than a single parameter because there will be other fields in the phys_caps. The first field we add to the mlx4_phys_caps structure is num_phys_eqs. 2. In INIT_HCA, when running in SRIOV mode, the "log_num_eqs" parameter passed to the FW is the number of EQs per VF/PF; each function (PF or VF) has this number of EQs available. However, the total number of EQs which must be allowed for in the ICM is (1 << log_num_eqs) * (#VFs + #PFs). Rather than compute this quantity, we allocate ICM space for 1024 EQs (which is the device maximum number of EQs, and which is the value we place in the mlx4_phys_caps structure). For INIT_HCA, however, we use the per-function number of EQs as described above.
