xprtrdma: Allocate and map transport header buffers at connect time
Currently the underlying RDMA device is chosen at transport set-up
time. But it will soon be at connect time instead.
The maximum size of a transport header is based on device
capabilities. Thus transport header buffers have to be allocated
_after_ the underlying device has been chosen (via address and route
resolution); ie, in the connect worker.
Thus, move the allocation of transport header buffers to the connect
worker, after the point at which the underlying RDMA device has been
chosen.
This also means the RDMA device is available to do a DMA mapping of
these buffers at connect time, instead of in the hot I/O path. Make
that optimization as well.
