IB/mthca: Fix access to MTT and MPT tables on non-cache-coherent CPUs

Browse source 
We allocate the MTT table with alloc_pages() and then do pci_map_sg(),
so we must call pci_dma_sync_sg() after the CPU writes to the MTT
table.  This works since the device will never write MTTs on mem-free
HCAs, once we get rid of the use of the WRITE_MTT firmware command.
This change is needed to make that work, and is an improvement for
now, since it gives FMRs a chance at working.

For MPTs, both the device and CPU might write there, so we must
allocate DMA coherent memory for these.
