MLX5_IB_METHOD_DM_MAP_OP_ADDR accepts a handle to any DM object and
converts it with to_memic() without checking the DM type. The handle can
refer to a SW ICM object, which is a struct mlx5_ib_dm_icm and is
smaller than struct mlx5_ib_dm_memic.
The handler then uses the ops_xa_lock, ops and ref members, which are
all located past the end of the mlx5_ib_dm_icm allocation, so it locks
and modifies memory that belongs to other slab objects.
Return -EOPNOTSUPP for DM objects that are not MEMIC, as
MLX5_IB_METHOD_DM_QUERY already does.
Fixes: cea85fa5dbc2 ("RDMA/mlx5: Add support in MEMIC operations")
