RDMA/irdma: avoid use-after-free in icrdma_remove
icrdma_remove() dereferences iwdev after calling
irdma_ib_unregister_device():
irdma_ib_unregister_device(iwdev)
-> ib_unregister_device(&iwdev->ibdev)
-> __ib_unregister_device()
-> ib_dealloc_device()
irdma registers irdma_ib_dealloc_device() as the dealloc_driver
callback in its ib_device_ops. The RDMA core explicitly documents
ib_unregister_device() that when ops.dealloc_driver is used, ib_dev
will be freed upon return from the function.
The ib_device is embedded in struct irdma_device and iwdev itself was
allocated by ib_alloc_device(irdma_device, ibdev). Consequently, once
irdma_ib_unregister_device() returns, iwdev must no longer be
dereferenced.
However, icrdma_remove() currently accesses iwdev->rf afterwards when
deinitializing interrupts, destroying ah_tbl_lock, and freeing rf.
Although the final ib_device storage is released with kfree_rcu(), the
object lifetime has already ended and callers must not rely on the RCU
grace period to continue dereferencing iwdev.
Save iwdev->rf before unregistering the RDMA device and use the saved
pointer for the remaining cleanup.
This issue was found by manual code inspection.
