We should reduce the number of reserved completion queues from the total
number of entries. Since the queue size is power of two, not reducing the
reserved entries, caused a double queue size, which may lead to allocation
failures in some cases.

In case of allocation failure, tried to use the promiscuous QP
entry that was previously freed.
Now freeing this entry only in case we will not put it back to the list
of promiscuous entries.

The mlx4_en driver uses the combination stop_port/start_port
in a number of places.  Unfortunately that causes any promiscuous
mode settings on the hardware to be lost.

This patch fixes that problem.
