staging/lustre/o2iblnd: handle mixed page size configurations.
Currently it is not possible to send LNet traffic between two nodes using infiniband hardware that have different page sizes for the case when RDMA fragments are used. When two nodes establish a connection they tell the other node the maximum number of RDMA fragments they support. The issue is that the units are pages, and 256 64K pages corresponds to 16MB of data, whereas a 4K page system is limited to messages with 1MB of data. The solution is to report over the wire the maximum number of fragments in 4K unites regardless of the native page size. The recipient then uses its native page size to translate into the maximum number of pages sized fragments it can send to the other node.
