Erez Shitrit c06f8c2173 IB/mlx5: Fetch soft WQE's on fatal error state
commit 7b74a83cf54a3747e22c57e25712bd70eef8acee upstream.

On fatal error the driver simulates CQE's for ULPs that rely on
completion of all their posted work-request.

For the GSI traffic, the mlx5 has its own mechanism that sends the
completions via software CQE's directly to the relevant CQ.

This should be kept in fatal error too, so the driver should simulate
such CQE's with the specified error state in order to complete GSI QP
work requests.

Without the fix the next deadlock might appears:
        schedule_timeout+0x274/0x350
        wait_for_common+0xec/0x240
        mcast_remove_one+0xd0/0x120 [ib_core]
        ib_unregister_device+0x12c/0x230 [ib_core]
        mlx5_ib_remove+0xc4/0x270 [mlx5_ib]
        mlx5_detach_device+0x184/0x1a0 [mlx5_core]
        mlx5_unload_one+0x308/0x340 [mlx5_core]
        mlx5_pci_err_detected+0x74/0xe0 [mlx5_core]

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
