[net-next,v2,0/2] net/smc: send and write inline optimization for smc

Send cdc msgs and write data inline if qp has sufficent inline
space, helps latency reducing. 

In my test environment, which are 2 VMs running on the same
physical host and whose NICs(ConnectX-4Lx) are working on
SR-IOV mode, qperf shows 0.4us-1.3us improvement in latency.

Test command:
server: smc_run taskset -c 1 qperf
client: smc_run taskset -c 1 qperf <server ip> -oo \
		msg_size:1:2K:*2 -t 30 -vu tcp_lat

The results shown below:
msgsize     before       after
1B          11.9 us      10.6 us (-1.3 us)
2B          11.7 us      10.7 us (-1.0 us)
4B          11.7 us      10.7 us (-1.0 us)
8B          11.6 us      10.6 us (-1.0 us)
16B         11.7 us      10.7 us (-1.0 us)
32B         11.7 us      10.6 us (-1.1 us)
64B         11.7 us      11.2 us (-0.5 us)
128B        11.6 us      11.2 us (-0.4 us)
256B        11.8 us      11.2 us (-0.6 us)
512B        11.8 us      11.3 us (-0.5 us)
1KB         11.9 us      11.5 us (-0.4 us)
2KB         12.1 us      11.5 us (-0.6 us)
