Merge branch 'smc-fixes'


Dust Li says:

====================
net/smc: fix kernel panic caused by race of smc_sock

This patchset fixes the race between smc_release triggered by
close(2) and cdc_handle triggered by underlaying RDMA device.

The race is caused because the smc_connection may been released
before the pending tx CDC messages got its CQEs. In order to fix
this, I add a counter to track how many pending WRs we have posted
through the smc_connection, and only release the smc_connection
after there is no pending WRs on the connection.

The first patch prevents posting WR on a QP that is not in RTS
state. This patch is needed because if we post WR on a QP that
is not in RTS state, ib_post_send() may success but no CQE will
return, and that will confuse the counter tracking the pending
WRs.

The second patch add a counter to track how many WRs were posted
through the smc_connection, and don't reset the QP on link destroying
to prevent leak of the counter.
