Allow the comp_handler callback implementation to call ib_poll_cq().
A call to ib_poll_cq() calls rxe_poll_cq() with the rdma_rxe driver.
And rxe_poll_cq() locks cq->cq_lock. That leads to a spinlock deadlock.

The Mellanox and Intel drivers allow a comp_handler callback
implementation to call ib_poll_cq().

Avoid the deadlock by calling the comp_handler callback without
holding cq->cq_lock.

Changelog:
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250806123921.633410-1-philipp.reisner@linbit.com/
v1 -> v2:
- Only reset cq->notify to 0 when invoking the comp_handler
