	Pass the number of WQEs for the send queue and their size from userspace to the kernel to avoid having to keep the QP size calculations in sync between the kernel driver and libmlx4. This fixes a bug seen with the current mlx4_ib driver and current libmlx4 caused by a difference in the calculated sizes for SQ WQEs. Also, this gives more flexibility for userspace to experiment with using multiple WQE BBs for a single SQ WQE.

2007-05-08	IB/mlx4: Add a driver Mellanox ConnectX InfiniBand adapters	Roland Dreier
	Add an InfiniBand driver for Mellanox ConnectX adapters. Because these adapters can also be used as ethernet NICs and Fibre Channel HBAs, the driver is split into two modules: mlx4_core: Handles low-level things like device initialization and processing firmware commands. Also controls resource allocation so that the InfiniBand, ethernet and FC functions can share a device without stepping on each other. mlx4_ib: Handles InfiniBand-specific things; plugs into the InfiniBand midlayer.
