-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------

From: Michael S Tsirkin <mst@mellanox.co.il>

ib_ucm_cleanup_events() holds file_mutex while calling ib_destroy_cm_id().
This can deadlock since ib_destroy_cm_id() flushes event handlers, and
ib_ucm_event_handler() needs file_mutex, too.  Therefore, drop the
file_mutex during the call to ib_destroy_cm_id().
