RDMA/cma: Fix device removal race
The race is as follows: A process : cma_process_remove() calls cma_remove_id_dev(), which sets id state to CMA_DEVICE_REMOVAL and calls wait_event(dev_remove). B process : cma_req_handler() had incremented dev_remove, and calls cma_acquire_ib_dev() and on failure calls cma_release_remove(), which does a wake_up of cma_process_remove(). Then cma_req_handler() calls rdma_destroy_id(); A Process : cma_remove_id_dev() gets woken and checks the state of id, and since it is still (wrongly) CMA_DEVICE_REMOVAL, it calls notify_user(id) and if that fails, the caller - cma_process_remove() calls rdma_destroy_id(id). Two processes can call rdma_destroy_id(), resulting in one de-referencing kfreed id_priv. Fix is for process B to set CMA_DESTROYING in cma_req_handler() so that process A will return instead of doing a rdma_destroy_id().
