RDMA/rxe: Fix a race condition in rxe_requester()
The rxe driver works as follows: * The send queue, receive queue and completion queues are implemented as circular buffers. * ib_post_send() and ib_post_recv() calls are serialized through a spinlock. * Removing elements from various queues happens from tasklet context. Tasklets are guaranteed to run on at most one CPU. This serializes access to these queues. See also rxe_completer(), rxe_requester() and rxe_responder(). * rxe_completer() processes the skbs queued onto qp->resp_pkts. * rxe_requester() handles the send queue (qp->sq.queue). * rxe_responder() processes the skbs queued onto qp->req_pkts. Since rxe_drain_req_pkts() processes qp->req_pkts, calling rxe_drain_req_pkts() from rxe_requester() is racy. Hence this patch.
