Erez Shitrit 97834eba7c net/mlx5: Delay events till ib registration ends
When mlx5_ib registers itself to mlx5_core as an interface, it will
call mlx5_add_device which will call mlx5_ib interface add callback,
in case the latter successfully returns, only then mlx5_core will add
it to the interface list and async events will be forwarded to mlx5_ib.
Between mlx5_ib interface add callback and mlx5_core adding the mlx5_ib
interface to its devices list, arriving mlx5_core events can be missed
by the new mlx5_ib registering interface.

In other words:
thread 1: mlx5_ib: mlx5_register_interface(dev)
thread 1: mlx5_core: mlx5_add_device(dev)
thread 1: mlx5_core: ctx = dev->add => (mlx5_ib)->mlx5_ib_add
thread 2: mlx5_core_event: **new event arrives, forward to dev_list
thread 1: mlx5_core: add_ctx_to_dev_list(ctx)
/* previous event was missed by the new interface.*/
It is ok to miss events before dev->add (mlx5_ib)->mlx5_ib_add_device
but not after.

We fix this race by accumulating the events that come between the
ib_register_device (inside mlx5_add_device->(dev->add)) till the adding
to the list completes and fire them to the new registering interface
after that.
