IB/mlx5: Simplify mlx5_ib_cont_pages

The patch simplifies mlx5_ib_cont_pages and fixes the following
issues in the original implementation:

First issues is related to alignment of the PFNs. After the check
base + p != PFN, the alignment of the PFN wasn't checked. So the PFN
sequence 0, 1, 1, 2 would result in a page_shift of 13 even though
the 3rd PFN is not 8KB aligned.

This wasn't actually a bug because it was supported by all the
existing mlx5 compatible device, but we don't want to require
this support in all future devices.

Another issue is because the inner loop didn't advance PFN so
the test "if (base + p != pfn)" always failed for SGE with
len > (1<<page_shift).
