IB/qib: Optimize locking for get_txreq()
The current code locks the QP s_lock, followed by the pending_lock, I guess to to protect against the allocate failing. This patch only locks the pending_lock, assuming that the empty case is an exeception, in which case the pending_lock is dropped, and the original code is executed. This will save a lock of s_lock in the normal case. The observation is that the sdma descriptors will deplete at twice the rate of txreq's, so this should be rare.
