Michael Guralnik dd1b913fb0 RDMA/mlx5: Cache all user cacheable mkeys on dereg MR flow
Currently, when dereging an MR, if the mkey doesn't belong to a cache
entry, it will be destroyed.  As a result, the restart of applications
with many non-cached mkeys is not efficient since all the mkeys are
destroyed and then recreated.  This process takes a long time (for 100,000
MRs, it is ~20 seconds for dereg and ~28 seconds for re-reg).

To shorten the restart runtime, insert all cacheable mkeys to the cache.
If there is no fitting entry to the mkey properties, create a temporary
entry that fits it.

After a predetermined timeout, the cache entries will shrink to the
initial high limit.

The mkeys will still be in the cache when consuming them again after an
application restart. Therefore, the registration will be much faster
(for 100,000 MRs, it is ~4 seconds for dereg and ~5 seconds for re-reg).

The temporary cache entries created to store the non-cache mkeys are not
exposed through sysfs like the default cache entries.

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.
