RDMA: Simplify get firmware interface
There is a need to forward FW version to user space
application through RDMA netlink. In order to make it safe, there
is need to declare nla_policy and limit the size of FW string.
The new define IB_FW_VERSION_NAME_MAX will limit the size of
FW version string. That define was chosen to be equal to
ETHTOOL_FWVERS_LEN, because many drivers anyway are limited
by that value indirectly.
The introduction of this define allows us to remove the string size
from get_fw_str function signature.
