mlx5 has an ugly flow where it tries to allocate a new MR and replace the
existing MR in the same memory during rereg. This is very complicated and
buggy. Instead of trying to replace in-place inside the driver, provide
support from uverbs to change the entire HW object assigned to a handle
during rereg_mr.
Since destroying a MR is allowed to fail (ie if a MW is pointing at it)
and can't be detected in advance, the algorithm creates a completely new
uobject to hold the new MR and swaps the IDR entries of the two objects.
The old MR in the temporary IDR entry is destroyed, and if it fails
rereg_mr succeeds and destruction is deferred to FD release. This
complexity is why this cannot live in a driver safely.
