4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Marta Rybczynska <mrybczyn@xxxxxxxxx> commit 5e599d73c1c1816af07f94ddba879499aa39b43c upstream. This patch improves the way the RDMA IB signalling is done by using atomic operations for the signalling variable. This avoids race conditions on sig_count. The signalling interval changes slightly and is now the largest power of two not larger than queue depth / 2. ilog() usage idea by Bart Van Assche.
