IB/mthca: Avoid integer overflow when allocating huge ICM table

Browse source 
In mthca_alloc_icm_table(), the number of entries to allocate for the
table->icm array is computed by calculating obj_size * nobj and then
dividing by MTHCA_TABLE_CHUNK_SIZE.  If nobj is really large, then
obj_size * nobj may overflow and the division may get the wrong value
(even a negative value).  Fix this by calculating the number of
objects per chunk and then dividing nobj by this value instead.

This patch allows crazy configurations such as loading ib_mthca with
the module parameter num_mtt=33554432 to work properly.
