remove_qp() can execute concurrently with a qib_lookup_qpn() on another CPU, which in of itself, is ok, given the RCU locking. The issue is that remove_qp() NULLs out the qp->next field so that a qib_lookup_qpn() might fail to find a qp if it occurs after the one that is being deleted. This is a momentary issue and subsequent qib_lookup_qpn() calls would find the qp's since the search restarts from the bucket head. At scale, the issue might causes dropped packets and unnecessary retransmissions. The fix just deletes the qp->next NULL assignment to prevent the remove_qp() from hiding qp's from qib_lookup_qpn().
