It could even be right like this..

This should be inside the lock though:

        newxprt->sc_cm_id->event_handler = svc_rdma_cma_handler;

But this really funny looking, before it gets to accept the handler is
still the listen handler so any incoming events will just be
discarded.

However the rdma_accept() should fail if the state machine has been
moved from the accepting state, and I think the only meaningful event
that can be delivered here is disconnect. So the rdma_accept() failure
does trigger destroy_id, which is the right thing on disconnect anyhow.
