Jason Gunthorpe b045db62f6 RDMA/mlx5: Use ib_umem_find_best_pgoff() for SRQ
SRQ uses a quantized and scaled page_offset, which is another variation of
ib_umem_find_best_pgsz(). Add mlx5_umem_find_best_quantized_pgoff() to
perform this calculation for each mailbox. A macro shows how the
calculation is directly connected to the mailbox format.

This new routine replaces the limited mlx5_ib_cont_pages() and
mlx5_ib_get_buf_offset() pairing which would reject valid configurations
rather than adjust the page_size to make it work.

In turn this is much more aggressive about choosing large page sizes for
these objects and when THP is enabled it will now often find a single page
solution.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
