Subject: [PATCH 3.16 184/306] net/mlx4_core: Fix the resource-type enum in
 res tracker to conform to FW spec

3.16.40-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jack Morgenstein <jackm@....mellanox.co.il>

commit aa0c08feae8161b945520ada753d0dfe62b14fe7 upstream.

The resource type enum in the resource tracker was incorrect.
RES_EQ was put in the position of RES_NPORT_ID (a FC resource).

Since the remaining resources maintain their current values,
and RES_EQ is not passed from slaves to the hypervisor in any
FW command, this change affects only the hypervisor.
Therefore, there is no backwards-compatibility issue.
