Subject: RDMA/rdma_cm: Fix use after free race with process_one_req

From: Jason Gunthorpe <[email protected]>

commit 9137108cc3d64ade13e753108ec611a0daed16a0 upstream.

process_one_req() can race with rdma_addr_cancel():

	                                  mutex_unlock(&lock);

mutex_lock(&lock);
[..]

	list_del(&req->list);

mutex_unlock(&lock);
[..]

// ODEBUG explodes since the work is still queued. kfree(req);

Causing ODEBUG to detect the use after free:
