Some large systems may support more than IB_UVERBS_MAX_DEVICES
(currently 32).

This change allows us to support more devices in a backwards-compatible
manner.  The first IB_UVERBS_MAX_DEVICES keep the same major/minor
device numbers that they've always had.

If there are more than IB_UVERBS_MAX_DEVICES, we then dynamically
request a new major device number (new minors start at 0).

This change increases the maximum number of HCAs to 64 (from 32).
