IB/sa: Fail requests made while creating new SM AH

This patch solves a race that occurs after an event occurs that causes
the SA query module to flush its SM address handle (AH).  When SM AH
becomes invalid and needs an update it is handled by the global
workqueue.  On the other hand this event is also handled in the IPoIB
driver by queuing work in the ipoib_workqueue that does multicast
joins.  Although queuing is in the right order, it is done to 2
different workqueues and so there is no guarantee that the first to be
queued is the first to be executed.

This causes a problem because IPoIB may end up sending an request to
the old SM, which will take a long time to time out (since the old SM
is gone); this leads to a much longer than necessary interruption in
multicast traffer.

The patch sets the SA query module's SM AH to NULL when the event
occurs, and until update_sm_ah() is done, any request that needs sm_ah
fails with -EAGAIN return status.

For consumers, the patch doesn't make things worse.  Before the patch,
MADs are sent to the wrong SM so the request gets lost.  Consumers can
be improved if they examine the return code and respond to EAGAIN
properly but even without an improvement the situation is not getting
worse.
