There used to be one control queue per adapter (the mgmtq) that was
initialized during adapter init and one per port that was initialized
later during port init. This change moves all the control queues (one
per port/channel) to the adapter so that they are initialized during
adapter init and are available before any port is up. This allows the
driver to issue ctrlq work requests over any channel without having to
bring up any port.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error

to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
(and accurate).
T4 and later have an extra bit for page shift so the maximum page size
is 8TB (shift of 12 + 31) instead of 128MB (12 + 15). This saves space
in the chip's PBL (physical buffer list) when registering very large
memory regions.
