Mike Marciniszyn dd1ed10817 IB/hfi1: Fix yield logic in send engine
When there are many RC QPs and an RDMA READ request
is sent, timeouts occur on the requester side because
of fairness among RC QPs on their relative SDMA engine
on the responder side.  This also hits write and send, but
to a lesser extent.

Complicating the issue is that the current code checks if workqueue
is congested before scheduling other QPs, however, this
check is based on the number of active entries in the
workqueue, which was found to be too big to for
workqueue_congested() to be effective.

Fix by reducing the number of active entries as revealed by
experimentation from the default of num_sdma to
HFI1_MAX_ACTIVE_WORKQUEUE_ENTRIES.  Retry counts were monitored
to determine the correct value.

Tracing to investigate any future issues is also added.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
