    ib/mlx4: adjust gfp flags for DMA allocations
    
    For most cases it is enough to use common GFP_KERNEL flag. However, there is
    one place with defined fallback path on unsuccessful allocation. In this case
    it would be preferred to append on first allocation attempt __GFP_NOWARN and
    __GFP_NORETRY flags to suppress possible warnings and to shorten the path to
    the fallback in a case of memory pressure.
