commit bc52e9ca74 upstream.
__flush_qp() has a race condition where during the flush operation,
the qp lock is released allowing another thread to possibly post a WR,
which corrupts the queue state, possibly causing crashes. The lock was
released to preserve the cq/qp locking hierarchy of cq first, then qp.
However releasing the qp lock is not necessary; both RQ and SQ CQ locks
can be acquired first, followed by the qp lock, and then the RQ and SQ
flushing can be done w/o unlocking.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
