Raju Rangoju 7dbf12973d nvmet-rdma: fix null dereference under heavy load
commit 5cbab6303b upstream.

Under heavy load if we don't have any pre-allocated rsps left, we
dynamically allocate a rsp, but we are not actually allocating memory
for nvme_completion (rsp->req.rsp). In such a case, accessing pointer
fields (req->rsp->status) in nvmet_req_init() will result in crash.

To fix this, allocate the memory for nvme_completion by calling
nvmet_rdma_alloc_rsp()

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
