This patch changes rpcrdma_conn_func() to directly call
xprt_disconnect() instead of directly waking the pending
task queue.

Does this fix some issue, or is it simply more efficient to initiate the
disconnect immediately? Because the conn_func is called directly
from the RDMA provider's connection upcall, it may be entered in
an arbitrary context, so xprt_disconnect() could be a bit heavyweight
and lead to deadlock. Have you satisified yourself this is not the
case?
Well xprt_disconnect_done() is no more heavy weight then the rpcrdma_conn_func() equivalent it simply clears the connected bit and labels the queues as not connected. The reason for calling xprt_disconnect_done() is to make a single disconnect function.

The reason this change is needed is to allow the send and resend queues to be drained on disconnect, patch 02 could have been changed to also drain the these queues from rpcrdma_conn_func() however I think this is a cleaner fix.

Thanks
Pete
