[PATCH RFC 0/5] xprtrdma Send completion batching

[Chuck Lever <chuck.lever-QHcLZuEGTsvQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>]

Hi Jason, Sagi-

As we discussed a few weeks ago, this patch series implements the
following:

- Send SGEs are now managed via lock-less, wait-free circular queues
- Send SGEs referring to page cache pages are DMA unmapped during
  Send completion
- Send completions are batched to reduce interrupts, but still
  provide a periodic heartbeat signal for SQ housekeeping
- The circular queue prevents Send Queue overflow

The purpose of this change is to address the issue Sagi reported
where the HCA continues to retry a delayed Send request _after_ RPC
completion, resulting in a DMA error.

Also available as the first five commits in this topic branch:
