Subject: iw_cxgb4: atomically flush the qp

From: Steve Wise <swise@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit bc52e9ca74b9a395897bb640c6671b2cbf716032 upstream.

__flush_qp() has a race condition where during the flush operation,
the qp lock is released allowing another thread to possibly post a WR,
which corrupts the queue state, possibly causing crashes.  The lock was
released to preserve the cq/qp locking hierarchy of cq first, then qp.
However releasing the qp lock is not necessary; both RQ and SQ CQ locks
can be acquired first, followed by the qp lock, and then the RQ and SQ
flushing can be done w/o unlocking.
