When accounting the needed_pages, we need to look into
the page_list->max_page_list_len and not the global

This is the last user of sc_frmr_pg_list_len. If Steve thinks this is
a good change, then why not remove it.

The client uses ib_device_attr::max_fast_reg_page_list_len too.
Should it be fixed?

I've actually been playing around with this as part of the porting
to the new fast registration API which makes fast_reg_page_list go away.
xprtrdma and svcrdma are switched to use scatterlists instead and
the drivers handle the page lists internally.

So we can remove it, but I think this whole section will go away
eventually.
