RE: Perftest fails when declaring support for MW_TYPE_2A

["Kalderon, Michal" <Michal.Kalderon-YGCgFSpz5w/QT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>]

Hi Zohar, 

Thanks for the quick response. I'm working on your git.
I don't think it was broken, more that perhaps it never worked over devices
that advertise MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2A

>From a quick grep I see that the only ones that advertise TYPE_2A are mlx4 and only under certain
Conditions. 

I'm currently adding support for MW_TYPE_2A for our qedr driver and that's how I 
Got the perftest failure. 

Ran ib_write_bw with all default values
Got the error: 
Couldn't allocate MR
Failed to create mr
... 

Thanks,
Michal
