The race is between completing the request at error recovery work and rdma completions. If we cancel the request before getting the good rdma completion we get a NULL deref of the request MR at nvme_rdma_process_nvme_rsp(). When Canceling the request we return its mr to the mr pool (set mr to NULL) and also unmap its data. Canceling the requests while the rdma queues are active is not safe. Because rdma queues are active and we get good rdma completions that can use the mr pointer which may be NULL. Completing the request too soon may lead also to performing DMA to/from user buffers which might have been already unmapped. The commit fixes the race by draining the QP before starting the abort commands mechanism.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
