Max Gurtovoy 62f99b62e5 nvme-rdma: use dynamic dma mapping per command
Commit 87fd125344 ("nvme-rdma: remove redundant reference between
ib_device and tagset") caused a kernel panic when disconnecting from an
inaccessible controller (disconnect during re-connection).

The reason for this crash is accessing an already freed ib_device for
performing dma_unmap during exit_request commands. The root cause for
that is that during re-connection all the queues are destroyed and
re-created (and the ib_device is reference counted by the queues and
freed as well) but the tagset stays alive and all the DMA mappings (that
we perform in init_request) kept in the request context. The original
commit fixed a different bug that was introduced during bonding (aka nic
teaming) tests that for some scenarios change the underlying ib_device
and caused memory leakage and possible segmentation fault. This commit
is a complementary commit that also changes the wrong DMA mappings that
were saved in the request context and making the request sqe dma
mappings dynamic with the command lifetime (i.e. mapped in .queue_rq and
unmapped in .complete). It also fixes the above crash of accessing freed
ib_device during destruction of the tagset.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
