siw_accept() associates a CEP with the selected QP while holding
qp->state_lock. If the transition to RTS fails, the error path releases
the lock before detaching that association.

The cleanup drops the QP association reference before clearing qp->cep.
A concurrent QP destroy can acquire qp->state_lock in between, observe
the stale pointer, and drop the same association reference again. This
can free the CEP before siw_accept() releases its remaining reference,
causing a use-after-free.

Serialize the error-side detachment with qp->state_lock and clear qp->cep
before dropping the association reference. This ensures that either the
accept cleanup or QP teardown removes the association, but not both.

This is a follow-up to commit a93949718259 ("RDMA/siw: Fix
use-after-free in siw_accept()") and addresses a separate race in the
same error path.
