Chuck Lever 4220a07264 xprtrdma: Prevent loss of completion signals
Commit 8301a2c047 ("xprtrdma: Limit work done by completion
handler") was supposed to prevent xprtrdma's upcall handlers from
starving other softIRQ work by letting them return to the provider
before all CQEs have been polled.

The logic assumes the provider will call the upcall handler again
immediately if the CQ is re-armed while there are still queued CQEs.

This assumption is invalid. The IBTA spec says that after a CQ is
armed, the hardware must interrupt only when a new CQE is inserted.
xprtrdma can't rely on the provider calling again, even though some
providers do.

Therefore, leaving CQEs on queue makes sense only when there is
another mechanism that ensures all remaining CQEs are consumed in a
timely fashion. xprtrdma does not have such a mechanism. If a CQE
remains queued, the transport can wait forever to send the next RPC.

Finally, move the wcs array back onto the stack to ensure that the
poll array is always local to the CPU where the completion upcall is
running.
