Subject: IB/hfi1: Fix a subcontext memory leak

From: Michael J. Ruhl <[email protected]>

commit 224d71f910102c966cdcd782c97e096d5e26e4da upstream.

The only context that frees user_exp_rcv data structures is the last context closed (from a sub-context set). This leaks the allocations from the other sub-contexts. Separate the common frees from the specific frees and call them at the appropriate time.

Using KEDR to check for memory leaks we get:

Before test:

[leak_check] Possible leaks: 25

After test:

[leak_check] Possible leaks: 31 (6 leaked data structures)

After patch applied (before and after test have the same value)

[leak_check] Possible leaks: 25

Each leak is 192 + 13440 + 6720 = 20352 bytes per sub-context.
