If an mlx4 device with default FW (which gives a UAR BAR size of 8 MB)
is used in a system with 64 KB pages, then there are only 8192/64==128
UAR pages available. However, the first 128 UAR pages are reserved
for use with event queue doorbells, so no UAR pages are available to
do anything else with, which means that the driver cannot work.
The current driver fails with a fairly cryptic "Failed to allocate
driver access region, aborting" message in this situation. Fix the
driver to detect the problem earlier and print out a clearer
description of the problem and a suggestion of how to fix it (use a
new firmware image).

Commit ee49bd93 ("mlx4_core: Reset device when internal error is
detected") introduced some section mismatch problems when
CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n, because the error recovery code tears down and
reinitializes the device after everything is loaded, which ends up
calling into lots of code marked __devinit and __devexit from regular
.text. Fix this by getting rid of these now-incorrect section
markers.

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.
