IPoIB: Fix AH leak at interface down

Browse Source 
When ipoib_stop() is called it first calls netif_stop_queue() to stop
the kernel from passing more packets to the network driver. However,
the completion handler may call netif_wake_queue() re-enabling packet
transfer.

This might result in leaks (we see AH leaks which we think can be
attributed to this bug) as new packets get posted while the interface
is going down.
