Hariprasad S 6e410d8f71 RDMA/iw_cxgb4: ensure eps don't get freed while the mutex is held
In rx_data(), with the ep in FPDU_MODE, refcnt=2, if we get unexpected
streaming data, we call c4iw_modify_rc_qp() and move the qp from
RTS -> TERMINATE.  In c4iw_modify_rc_qp(), if rdma_fini() returns
an error, the ep will be dereferenced (refcnt=1).  Then rx_data()
calls c4iw_ep_disconnect() which starts the close operation.
But if send_halfclose() fails in c4iw_ep_disconnect(), we  will call
release_ep_resources() derefing the ep which reduces the refcnt to 0 and
and frees the ep. However we still has the ep mutex at that point, so we
have a touch-after-free bug.  There is a similar issue where
peer_close() calls c4iw_ep_disconnect().

The solution is to add a reference to the ep in c4iw_ep_disconnect()
after acquiring  the mutex, and release it after releasing the mutex.
