Subject: [PATCH 1/1] RDMA/rxe: Fix ref count error in check_rkey()
Git-commit: b00683422fd79dd07c9b75efdce1660e5e19150e
Patch-mainline: v6.4-rc7
References: git-fixes

There is a reference count error in error path code and a potential race
in check_rkey() in rxe_resp.c. When looking up the rkey for a memory
window the reference to the mw from rxe_lookup_mw() is dropped before a
reference is taken on the mr referenced by the mw. If the mr is destroyed
immediately after the call to rxe_put(mw) the mr pointer is unprotected
and may end up pointing at freed memory. The rxe_get(mr) call should take
place before the rxe_put(mw) call.

All errors in check_rkey() call rxe_put(mw) if mw is not NULL but it was
already called after the above. The mw pointer should be set to NULL after
the rxe_put(mw) call to prevent this from happening.
