staging/rdma/hfi1: correctly check for post-interrupt packets
At the end of the packet processing interrupt and thread handler, the RcvAvail interrupt is finally cleared down. There is a window between the last packet check (via DMA to memory) and interrupt clear-down. The code to recheck for a packet once the RcvAVail interrupt is enabled must ultimately use a CSR read of RcvHdrTail rather than depend on DMA'ed memory. This change adds a CSR read of RcvHdrTail if the memory check does not show a packet preset. The memory check is retained as a quick test before doing the more expensive, but always correct, CSR read. In the ASIC, the CSR read used to force the RcvAvail clear-down write to complete may bypass queued DMA writes to memory. The only correct way to decide if a packet has arrived without an interrupt to push DMA to memory ahead of itself is to read the tail directly after RcvAvail has been cleared down. It is not sufficient to just read the tail and skip pushing the clear-down. Both must be done. The tail read will not push clear-down write due to it being in a different area of the chip. At this point, it is OK to have packet data still being DMA'ed to memory. This is the end of packet processing for previous packets. If the driver detects a new packet has arrived before interrputs were re-enabled, it will force a new interrupt and the interrupt will push the packet DMAs to memory, where the driver will then react to the interrupt and do normal packet processing.
