Building mlx5 on s390 shows a rather high stack usage that can exceed
the warning limit when that is set to a lower but still reasonable value:
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/wr.c:1051:5: error: stack frame size (1328) exceeds limit (1280) in 'mlx5_ib_post_send' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]
The problem here is 'struct ib_reg_wr' on the stack of
handle_reg_mr_integrity(), which gets inlined into mlx5_ib_post_send()
along with a number of smaller functions.
Keeping the inner function out of line like gcc does avoids the
warning and reduces the total stack usage in other functions called
from mlx5_ib_post_send(), though handle_reg_mr_integrity() itself
still has the same problem as before.
IMO, it is just a workaround to this problem. To fix this problem, the function set_reg_wr should be rewritten.

Dynamically allocating ib_reg_wr would be another option, actually
reducing the stack usage but adding a little bit of complexity
from error handling.
