paul luse 10808e45d4 idxd: refactor flow control for idxd engine
Recent work identified race conditions having to do with the
dynamic flow control mechanism for the idxd engine. In order
to both address the issue and simplify the code a new scheme
is now in place.  Essentially every DSA device will be allowed
to accomodate 8 channels and each channel will get a fixed 1/8
the number of work queue entries regardless of how many
channels there are.  Assignment of channels to devices is round
robin and if/when no more channels can be accommodated the get
channel request will fail.

The performance tests also revealed another issue that was
masked before, it's a one-line so is in this patch for convenience.
In the idxd poller we limit the number of completions allowed
during one run to avoid the poller thread from starving other
threads since as operations complete on this thread they are
immediately replaced up to the limit for the channel.
