This series cleanups the control plane part and the way it uses the different
kind of objects (DPDK queues, Verbs Queues, ...).  It has three goals:

 1. Reduce the memory usage by sharing all possible objects.

 2. Leave the configuration to the control plane and the creation/destruction
    of queues to the dev_start/dev_stop() to have a better control on object
    and easily apply the configuration.

 3. Create all flows through the generic flow API, it will also help to
    implement a detection collision algorithm as all flows are using the same
    service and thus the same kind of object.

Changes in v2:

 * rebase on upstream rdma-core/MLNX_OFED 4.2
 * split in smaller patches
