mlx5: use RCU lock in mlx5_eq_cq_get()

mlx5_eq_cq_get() is called in IRQ handler, the spinlock inside
gets a lot of contentions when we test some heavy workload
with 60 RX queues and 80 CPU's, and it is clearly shown in the
flame graph.

In fact, radix_tree_lookup() is perfectly fine with RCU read lock,
we don't have to take a spinlock on this hot path. This is pretty
much similar to commit 291c566a
("net/mlx4_core: Fix racy CQ (Completion Queue) free"). Slow paths
are still serialized with the spinlock, and with synchronize_irq()
it should be safe to just move the fast path to RCU read lock.

This patch itself reduces the latency by about 50% for our memcached
workload on a 4.14 kernel we test. In upstream, as pointed out by Saeed,
this spinlock gets some rework in commit 02d92f79
("net/mlx5: CQ Database per EQ"), so the difference could be smaller.
