When bringing the port up, performing a SENSE_PORT command
To try and check to which physical link type (IB or Ethernet) the physical
port is connected.
In case there is no valid link partner, the port will come up as its
supported default.

It is a fairly common operation to have a pointer to a work and to need a
pointer to the delayed work it is contained in. In particular, all
delayed works which want to rearm themselves will have to do that. So it
would seem fair to offer a helper function for this operation.

When a port's link is down (except to driver restart) and the port is
configured for auto sensing, we try to sense port link type (Ethernet
or InfiniBand) in order to determine how to initialize the port. If
the port type needs to be changed, all mlx4 for the device interfaces
are unregistered and then registered again with the new port
types. Sensing is done with intervals of 3 seconds.
