After modifying the QP to the Error state, all RX WR would be completed
with WC in IB_WC_WR_FLUSH_ERR status. Current implementation does not
wait for it is done, but destroy the QP and free the link group directly.
So there is a risk that accessing the freed memory in tasklet context.

Here is a crash example:

Thank you @Yacan for the effort to improve our code! And Thank you @Tony
for such valuable suggestions and testing!
I like the modification of this version. However, this is not a fix
patch to upstream, since the patches "[PATCH net-next v2 00/10] optimize
the parallelism of SMC-R connections" are still not applied. My
sugguestions:
- Please talk to the author (D. Wythe <alibuda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>) of
those patches I mentioned above, and ask if he can take your patch as a
part of the patch serie
- Fix patches should go to net-next
- Please send always send your new version separately, rather than as
reply to your previous version. That makes people confused.

@Wenjia, Thanks a lot for your suggestions and guidance !

@D. Wythe, Can you include this patch in your series of patches if it is
convenient?

Regards,
Yacan

One point I was confused, fixes should goto net, sorry!
