From: Tariq Toukan <tar...@mellanox.com> We use NOPs to populate the WQ fragment edge if the WQE does not fit in frag, to avoid WQEs crossing a page boundary (or wrap-around the WQ).
The upper bound on the needed number of NOPs is one WQEBB less than the largest possible WQE, for otherwise the WQE would certainly fit.
