mlx4: Replace the mlx4_interface.event callback with a notifier
Use a notifier to implement mlx4_dispatch_event() in preparation to
switch mlx4_en and mlx4_ib to be an auxiliary device.
A problem is that if the mlx4_interface.event callback was replaced with
something as mlx4_adrv.event then the implementation of
mlx4_dispatch_event() would need to acquire a lock on a given device
before executing this callback. That is necessary because otherwise
there is no guarantee that the associated driver cannot get unbound when
the callback is running. However, taking this lock is not possible
because mlx4_dispatch_event() can be invoked from the hardirq context.
Using an atomic notifier allows the driver to accurately record when it
wants to receive these events and solves this problem.
A handler registration is done by both mlx4_en and mlx4_ib at the end of
their mlx4_interface.add callback. This matches the current situation
when mlx4_add_device() would enable events for a given device
immediately after this callback, by adding the device on the
mlx4_priv.list.
