[patch 16/30] IB/mlx4: Add strong ordering to local inval and fast reg work requests

[Greg KH]

2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Jack Morgenstein <jackm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 2ac6bf4ddc87c3b6b609f8fa82f6ebbffeac12f4 upstream.

The ConnectX Programmer's Reference Manual states that the "SO" bit
must be set when posting Fast Register and Local Invalidate send work
requests.  When this bit is set, the work request will be executed
only after all previous work requests on the send queue have been
executed.  (If the bit is not set, Fast Register and Local Invalidate
WQEs may begin execution too early, which violates the defined
semantics for these operations)

This fixes the issue with NFS/RDMA reported in
