IB/rdmavt: Fix concurrency panics in QP post_send and modify to error



The RC/UC code path can go through a software loopback. In this code path
the receive side QP is manipulated.

If two threads are working on the QP receive side (i.e. post_send, and
modify_qp to an error state), QP information can be corrupted.

(post_send via loopback)
  set r_sge
  loop
     update r_sge
(modify_qp)
     take r_lock
     update r_sge <---- r_sge is now incorrect
(post_send)
     update r_sge <---- crash, etc.
     ...

This can lead to one of the two following crashes:

Fix by using the appropriate locking on the receiving QP.
