Jason Gunthorpe aa116b810a RDMA/mlx5: Order num_pending_prefetch properly with synchronize_srcu
During destroy setting live = 0 and then synchronize_srcu() prevents
num_pending_prefetch from incrementing, and also, ensures that all work
holding that count is queued on the WQ. Testing before causes races of the
form:

    CPU0                                         CPU1
  dereg_mr()
                                          mlx5_ib_advise_mr_prefetch()
            				   srcu_read_lock()
                                            num_pending_prefetch_inc()
					      if (!live)
   live = 0
   atomic_read() == 0
     // skip flush_workqueue()
                                              atomic_inc()
 					      queue_work();
            				   srcu_read_unlock()
   WARN_ON(atomic_read())  // Fails

Swap the order so that the synchronize_srcu() prevents this.

README

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.
