mlx4_core: Write MTTs from CPU instead with of WRITE_MTT FW command

Browse Source 
Write MTT entries directly to ICM from the driver (eliminating use of
WRITE_MTT command).  This reduces the number of FW commands needed to
register an MR by at least a factor of 2 and speeds up memory
registration significantly.  This code will also be used to implement
FMRs.
