Vladimir Sokolovsky 2d92865158 mlx4_core: Use MOD_STAT_CFG command to get minimal page size
There was a bug in some versions of the mlx4 driver in
mlx4_alloc_fmr(), which hardcoded the minimum acceptable page_shift to
be 12.  However, new ConnectX firmware can support a minimum
page_shift of 9 (log_pg_sz of 9 returned by QUERY_DEV_LIM) -- so with
old drivers, ib_fmr_alloc() would fail for ULPs using the device
minimum when creating FMRs.

To preserve firmware compatibility with released mlx4 drivers, the
firmware will continue to return 12 as before for log_page_sz in
QUERY_DEV_CAP for these drivers.  However, to enable new drivers to
take advantage of the available smaller page size, the mlx4 driver now
first sets the log_pg_sz to the device minimum by setting a
log_page_sz value to 0 via the MOD_STAT_CFG command and then reading
the real minimum via QUERY_DEV_CAP.
