887d296b88 [infiniband] Poll completion queues automatically
Currently, all Infiniband users must create a process for polling
their completion queues (or rely on a regular hook such as
netdev_poll() in ipoib.c).

Move instead to a model whereby the Infiniband core maintains a single
process calling ib_poll_eq(), and polling the event queue triggers
polls of the applicable completion queues.  (At present, the
Infiniband core simply polls all of the device's completion queues.)
Polling a completion queue will now implicitly refill all attached
receive work queues; this is analogous to the way that netdev_poll()
implicitly refills the RX ring.

Infiniband users no longer need to create a process just to poll their
completion queues and refill their receive rings.

1f5c0239b4 [infiniband] Centralise assumption of 2048-byte payloads
IPoIB and the SMA have separate constants for the packet size to be
used to I/O buffer allocations.  Merge these into the single
IB_MAX_PAYLOAD_SIZE constant.

(Various other points in the Infiniband stack have hard-coded
assumptions of a 2048-byte payload; we don't currently support
variable MTUs.)
