There are rare cases where an rpcrdma_req can be re-used (via
rpcrdma_buffer_put) while the RPC reply handler is still running.
This is due to a signal firing at just the wrong instant.
Since commit 9d6b040978 ("xprtrdma: Place registered MWs on a
per-req list"), rpcrdma_mws are self-contained; ie., they fully
describe an MR and scatterlist, and no part of that information is
stored in struct rpcrdma_req.
As part of closing the above race window, pass only the req's list
of registered MRs to ro_unmap_sync, rather than the rpcrdma_req
itself.
Some extra transport header sanity checking is removed. Since the
client depends on its own recollection of what memory had been
registered, there doesn't seem to be a way to abuse this change.
And, the check was not terribly effective. If the client had sent
Read chunks, the "list_empty" test is negative in both of the
removed cases, which are actually looking for Write or Reply
chunks.
