Hm, maybe we can move this qm_mc stuff outside cgr_lock? In most other
places they're called without cgr_lock, which implies that its usage
here is meant to synchronize against some other function.

The callbacks (in .../dpaa/dpaa_eth.c and .../caam/qi.c) look OK. The
only thing which might take a bit is dpaa_eth_refill_bpools, which
allocates memory (from the atomic pool).
