Subject: [net-next 08/15] net/mlx5: DR, Fix QP continuous allocation

From: Yevgeny Kliteynik <kliteyn@...dia.com>

When allocating a QP we allocate an RQ and an SQ, the RQ is stored first
in memory and followed by the SQ.
This allocation is not physically continiuos - it may span across different
physical pages. SW Steering code always writes in pairs: 1BB write + 1BB read,
or 2 continuous BBs of GTA WQE.

This lead to an issue where RQ allocation was 4x16 which is equal to 1 WQE BB,
causing 1 BB offset in the page and splitting the GTA WQE between different
physical pages.

The solution was to create the RQ with a even number of BBs and to have the
RQ aligned to a page.
