Christoph,

This is a problem for mlx5 which exposes:

         props->max_fast_reg_page_list_len = (unsigned int)-1;

Which is obviously wrong and needs to be corrected, but this is sort of
an overkill to allocate max supported unconditionally.

How about choosing a sane default of 256/512 pages for now? I don't
think we'll see a lot of larger transfers in iser/nvmf (which actually
need MRs for iWARP).

Alternatively we can allow the caller to limit the MR size?
