nvmet-auth: complete a request only after freeing the dhchap pointers
It may happen that the work to destroy a queue (for example nvmet_tcp_release_queue_work()) is started while an auth-send or auth-receive command is still completing. nvmet_sq_destroy() will block, waiting for all the references to the sq to be dropped, the last reference is then dropped when nvmet_req_complete() is called. When this happens, both nvmet_sq_destroy() and nvmet_execute_auth_send()/_receive() will free the dhchap pointers by calling nvmet_auth_sq_free(). Since there isn't any lock, the two threads may race against each other, causing double frees and memory corruptions, as reported by KASAN.
