eHCA2 supports QP queues that can be as small as 512 bytes. This
greatly reduces memory overhead for consumers that use lots of QPs
with small queues (e.g. RDMA-only QPs). Apart from dealing with
firmware, this code needs to manage bite-sized chunks of kernel pages,
making sure that no kernel page is shared between different protection
domains.
