CVE-2024-50147

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net/mlx5: Fix command bitmask initialization

Command bitmask have a dedicated bit for MANAGE_PAGES command, this bit
isn't Initialize during command bitmask Initialization, only during
MANAGE_PAGES.

In addition, mlx5_cmd_trigger_completions() is trying to trigger
completion for MANAGE_PAGES command as well.

Hence, in case health error occurred before any MANAGE_PAGES command
have been invoke (for example, during mlx5_enable_hca()),
mlx5_cmd_trigger_completions() will try to trigger completion for
MANAGE_PAGES command, which will result in null-ptr-deref error.[1]

Fix it by Initialize command bitmask correctly.

While at it, re-write the code for better understanding.
