IPoIB: Fix multicast race between canceling and completing
ipoib_mcast_stop_thread currently tests mcast->query and if it is
NULL, does not perform wait_for_completion on the mcast and frees the
mcast object directly.
However, since both operations are done without locking, it is
possible that ipoib_mcast_join_complete is in progress on this mcast
object and has set mcast->query to NULL already.
Solve this by:
- taking priv->lock before we change mcast->query in ipoib_mcast_join_complete,
and keeping it until we no longer need the mcast object
- taking priv->lock around mcast->query test in ipoib_mcast_stop_thread
