Tariq Toukan b146658f2e net/mlx5e: Add padding when needed in UMR WQEs
Per the device spec, MTTs/KLMs list in a UMR WQE must be aligned to 64B.
Per our SW design, the MTT/KLMs list would need alignment only if it's
too small, for example on PPC when PAGE_SIZE is 64KB, and only 4 pages
are needed to cover a MPWQE of size 256KB.

Padding, if needed, is taken into account when calculating the UMR WQE
fields (ds_cnt and xlt_octowords), however no entries are provided,
instead garbage is passed.

No real harm though, as these parts act as gaps between the RX MPWQEs
and not used by any of them. Hence, in practice, device does not try to
write any incoming packet to them. Still, prefer providing clean padding
marking the end of the list, and do not map garbage into the RQ memory
region.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
