3.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steve Wise <[email protected]>

commit 6b54d54dea82ae214e4a45a503c4ef755a8ecee8 upstream.

The status page is mapped to user processes and allows sharing the
device state between the kernel and user processes.  This state isn't
getting initialized and thus intermittently causes problems.  Namely,
the user process can mistakenly think the user doorbell writes are
disabled which causes SQ work requests to never get fetched by HW.

Fixes: 05eb23893c2c ("cxgb4/iw_cxgb4: Doorbell Drop Avoidance Bug Fixes").
