Yonatan Cohen fda85ce912 IB/rxe: Fix kernel panic from skb destructor
In the time between rxe_send has finished and skb destructor
called, the QP's ref count might be 0, leading to a possible
QP destruction. This will lead to a kernel panic when the destructor
dereferences the QP.

The operation of incrementing QP ref count at rxe_send and decrementing
from skb destructor will prevent this crash.

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000000000000072c

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
