IB/ipath: HW workaround for case where chip can send but not receive
Workaround a QLE7140 problem that in rare cases causes flow control problems after link recovery by forcing a link retrain after recovery. A module parameter is provided to control the behavior in case it causes problems. Signed-off-by: Dave Olson <dave.olson@qlogic.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
