This patch refactors the IB core umem code and vendor drivers to use a
linear (chained) SG table instead of chunk list. With this change the
relevant code becomes clearer—no need for nested loops to build and
use umem.

The driver is comprised of two kernel modules: mlx5_ib and mlx5_core.
This partitioning resembles what we have for mlx4, except that mlx5_ib
is the pci device driver and not mlx5_core.
mlx5_core is essentially a library that provides general functionality
that is intended to be used by other Mellanox devices that will be
introduced in the future. mlx5_ib has a similar role as any hardware
device under drivers/infiniband/hw.
