[ofa-general] [PATCH v2] mlx4: configure cache line size

[Eli Cohen]

ConnectX can work more efficiently if the CPU cache line size is configured to
it at INIT_HCA. This patch configures the CPU cache line size.

As per Roland's comments, the following changes were made:
1. Remove #ifdef cache_line_size and include linux/cache.h
2. Assume cache line size is a power of 2 and use ilog2 instead of
order_base_2
