I ran this code as part of a larger series that also includes SW USO support
on an mlx4 machine.

The only fix in this series is the deferred doorbell flush (patch 5), but I
need the other code (patches 1-4) for SW USO support I plan to submit next if
this series is applied.

Since patch 5 fixes an issue I've never actually seen, I am sending this
series to net-next without a fixes tag.
