Subject: svcrdma: avoid duplicate dma unmapping during error recovery

From: Sriharsha Basavapatna <sriharsha.basavapatna@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit ce1ca7d2d140a1f4aaffd297ac487f246963dd2f upstream.

In rdma_read_chunk_frmr() when ib_post_send() fails, the error code path
invokes ib_dma_unmap_sg() to unmap the sg list. It then invokes
svc_rdma_put_frmr() which in turn tries to unmap the same sg list through
ib_dma_unmap_sg() again. This second unmap is invalid and could lead to
problems when the iova being unmapped is subsequently reused. Remove
the call to unmap in rdma_read_chunk_frmr() and let svc_rdma_put_frmr()
handle it.
