[PATCH] IB/mthca: Handle context tables smaller than our chunk size
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When creating a table in context memory where the table is smaller
than our chunk size, we don't want to allocate and map a full chunk.
Instead, allocate just enough memory to cover the table.

This can be pretty simple because all tables are a power-of-2 size, so
either the table is a multiple of the chunk size, or it's smaller than
one chunk.
