Before an smc ib device is used the first time for an smc link it is
lazily initialized. When there are 2 active link groups and a new ib
device is brought online then it might happen that 2 link creations run
in parallel and enter smc_ib_setup_per_ibdev(). Both allocate new send
and receive completion queues on the device, but only one set of them
keeps assigned and the other leaks.
Fix that by protecting the setup and cleanup code using a mutex.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
