Subject: [PATCH 4.9 43/95] IB/srp: Fix completion vector assignment algorithm

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@....com>

commit 3a148896b24adf8688dc0c59af54531931677a40 upstream.

Ensure that cv_end is equal to ibdev->num_comp_vectors for the
NUMA node with the highest index. This patch improves spreading
of RDMA channels over completion vectors and thereby improves
performance, especially on systems with only a single NUMA node.
This patch drops support for the comp_vector login parameter by
ignoring the value of that parameter since I have not found a
good way to combine support for that parameter and automatic
spreading of RDMA channels over completion vectors.
