Why do we even bother with reg_phys_mr? Let's drop it entirely.

Why? Because, it exists in qib and hfi1.

However, it seems no one is actually using this in the kernel these days and the core support was removed in commit 1241d7bf. Yet the function pointer still exists in struct ib_device. Are there plans to remove this?

For this patch series I'll go ahead and remove rvt_reg_phys_mr.
