IB/qib, staging/rdma/hfi1: add s_hlock for use in post send
This patch adds an additional lock to reduce contention on the s_lock. This lock is used in post_send() so that the post_send is not serialized with the send engine and other send related processing. To do this the s_next_psn is now maintained on post_send() while post_send() related fields are moved to a new cache line. There is an s_avail maintained for the post_send() to mitigate trading cache lines with the send engine. The lock is released/acquired around releasing the just built packet to the egress mechanism.
