From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Prior to commit d345691471b4 ("RDMA: Handle AH allocations by IB/core"),
AH destroy path is rdmavt returned -EBUSY warning to application and
caused to potential leakage of kernel memory of AH structure.
After that commit, the AH structure is always freed but such early
return in driver code can potentially cause to use-after-free error.
Add warning to catch such situation to help driver developers to fix
AH release path.
