RDMA/ocrdma: EQ full catastrophe avoidance
Stale entries in the CQ being destroyed causes hardware to generate EQEs indefinitely for a given CQ. Thus causing uncontrolled execution of irq_handler. This patch fixes this using following sementics: * irq_handler will ring EQ doorbell atleast once and implement budgeting scheme. * cq_destroy will count number of valid entires during destroy and ring cq-db so that hardware does not generate uncontrolled EQE. * cq_destroy will synchronize with last running irq_handler instance. * arm_cq will always defer arming CQ till poll_cq, except for the first arm_cq call. * poll_cq will always ring cq-db with arm=SET if arm_cq was called prior to enter poll_cq. * poll_cq will always ring cq-db with arm=UNSET if arm_cq was not called prior to enter poll_cq.
