[ofa-general] [PATCH] mlx4_core: enable changing default max HCA resource limits at run time -- reposting

mlx4-core: enable changing default max HCA resource limits.

Enable module-initialization time modification of default HCA
maximum resource limits via module parameters, as is done in mthca.

Specify the log of the parameter value, rather than the value itself
to avoid the hidden side-effect of rounding up values to next power-of-2.

Roland,
This patch was first posted on Oct 16, 2007 (but got overlooked).

I'm reposting its current incarnation, which applies to the OFED 1.4 driver
as is currently on the OpenFabrics server (based on Kernel 2.6.25-rc7).

Please queue up for kernel 2.6.26.
Thanks!
Jack
