net/mlx4_en: Saving mem access on data path
Localized the pdev->dev, and using dma_map instead of pci_map There are multiple map/unmap operations on data path, optimizing those by saving redundant pointer access. Those places were identified as hot-spots when running kernel profiling during some benchmarks. The fixes had most impact when testing packet rate with small packets, reducing several % from CPU load, and in some case being the difference between reaching wire speed or being CPU bound.
