We encountered some crashes recently and they are caused by the race between the access and free of link/link group in smc link group termination. The crashes can be reproduced in frequent abnormal link group termination, like set RNICs up/down. This set of patches tries to fix this by extending the life cycle of link/link group to ensure that they won't be referred to after cleared or freed.
