Handling comm_channel_event in mlx4_master_comm_channel uses a double
loop to determine which slaves have requested work. The search is
always started at lowest slave. This leads to unfairness; lower VFs
tends to be prioritized over higher VFs.
The patch uses find_next_bit to determine which slaves to handle.
Fairness is implemented by always starting at the next to the last
start.
An MPI program has been used to measure improvements. It runs 500
ibv_reg_mr, synchronizes with all other instances and then runs 500
ibv_dereg_mr.
The results running 500 processes, time reported is for running 500
calls:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
