xprtrdma: Add ro_unmap_safe memreg method
There needs to be a safe method of releasing registered memory
resources when an RPC terminates. Safe can mean a number of things:
+ Doesn't have to sleep
+ Doesn't rely on having a QP in RTS
ro_unmap_safe will be that safe method. It can be used in cases
where synchronous memory invalidation can deadlock, or needs to have
an active QP.
The important case is fencing an RPC's memory regions after it is
signaled (^C) and before it exits. If this is not done, there is a
window where the server can write an RPC reply into memory that the
client has released and re-used for some other purpose.
Note that this is a full solution for FRWR, but FMR and physical
still have some gaps where a particularly bad server can wreak
some havoc on the client. These gaps are not made worse by this
patch and are expected to be exceptionally rare and timing-based.
They are noted in documenting comments.
