IB/rdmavt: Avoid queuing work into a destroyed cq kthread worker

The memory barrier is not enough to protect queuing works into
a destroyed cq kthread. Just imagine the following situation:

CPU1				CPU2

rvt_cq_enter()
  worker =  cq->rdi->worker;

				rvt_cq_exit()
				  rdi->worker = NULL;
				  smp_wmb();
				  kthread_flush_worker(worker);
				  kthread_stop(worker->task);
				  kfree(worker);

				  // nothing queued yet =>
				  // nothing flushed and
				  // happily stopped and freed

  if (likely(worker)) {
     // true => read before CPU2 acted
     cq->notify = RVT_CQ_NONE;
     cq->triggered++;
     kthread_queue_work(worker, &cq->comptask);

  BANG: worker has been flushed/stopped/freed in the meantime.

This patch solves this by protecting the critical sections by
rdi->n_cqs_lock. It seems that this lock is not much contended
and looks reasonable for this purpose.

One catch is that rvt_cq_enter() might be called from IRQ context.
Therefore we must always take the lock with IRQs disabled to avoid
a possible deadlock.
