H A Druc.cb6eac931 Sun Apr 09 12:16:35 CDT 2017 Mike Marciniszyn <mike.marciniszyn@intel.com> IB/hfi1: Prevent kernel QP post send hard lockups

The driver progress routines can call cond_resched() when
a timeslice is exhausted and irqs are enabled.

If the ULP had been holding a spin lock without disabling irqs and
the post send directly called the progress routine, the cond_resched()
could yield allowing another thread from the same ULP to deadlock
on that same lock.

Correct by replacing the current hfi1_do_send() calldown with a unique
one for post send and adding an argument to hfi1_do_send() to indicate
that the send engine is running in a thread. If the routine is not
running in a thread, avoid calling cond_resched().
