IB/ipoib: Avoid a race condition between start_xmit and cm_rep_handler

commit 816e846c2e upstream.

Inside of start_xmit() the call to check if the connection is up and the
queueing of the packets for later transmission is not atomic which leaves
a window where cm_rep_handler can run, set the connection up, dequeue
pending packets and leave the subsequently queued packets by start_xmit()
sitting on neigh->queue until they're dropped when the connection is torn
down. This only applies to connected mode. These dropped packets can
really upset TCP, for example, and cause multi-minute delays in
transmission for open connections.

Here's the code in start_xmit where we check to see if the connection is
up:

       if (ipoib_cm_get(neigh)) {
               if (ipoib_cm_up(neigh)) {
                       ipoib_cm_send(dev, skb, ipoib_cm_get(neigh));
                       goto unref;
               }
       }

The race occurs if cm_rep_handler execution occurs after the above
connection check (specifically if it gets to the point where it acquires
priv->lock to dequeue pending skb's) but before the below code snippet in
start_xmit where packets are queued.

       if (skb_queue_len(&neigh->queue) < IPOIB_MAX_PATH_REC_QUEUE) {
               push_pseudo_header(skb, phdr->hwaddr);
               spin_lock_irqsave(&priv->lock, flags);
               __skb_queue_tail(&neigh->queue, skb);
               spin_unlock_irqrestore(&priv->lock, flags);
       } else {
               ++dev->stats.tx_dropped;
               dev_kfree_skb_any(skb);
       }

The patch acquires the netif tx lock in cm_rep_handler for the section
where it sets the connection up and dequeues and retransmits deferred
skb's.
