Use individual page mappings rather than a single whole-region
mapping, to avoid the waste of memory that occurs due to the
constraint that each mapped block must be aligned on its own size.
We were accidentally allocating only half the required amount of
memory (given the alignment method) for the firmware buffer, leading
to conflicts between the firmware buffer and gPXE code/data segments.

Infiniband devices no longer block waiting for link-up in
register_ibdev().
Hermon driver needs to create an event queue and poll for link-up events.
Infiniband core needs to reread MAD parameters when link state changes.
IPoIB needs to cope with Infiniband link parameters being only partially
available at probe and open time.
Arbel and Hermon cards both have multiple ports. Add the
infrastructure required to register each port as a separate IB
device. Don't yet register more than one port, since registration
will currently fail unless a valid link is detected.
Use ib_*_{set,get}_{drv,owner}data wrappers to access driver- and
owner-private data on Infiniband structures.
Pull out common code for handling management datagrams from arbel.c
and hermon.c into infiniband.c.
Add port number to struct ib_device.
Add open(), close() and mad() methods to struct ib_device_operations.
