net/mlx4_core: Adjust counter grant policy in the resource tracker
Each physical function has a guarantee of two counters per port, one for a default counter and one for the IB driver. Each virtual function has a guarantee of one counter per port. All other counters are free and can be obtained on demand. This is a preparation step for supporting a get_vf_stats ndo call, so we can promise a counter for every VF in order to collect their statistics from the PF context.
