<br />
RDMA/rxe: Fix NULL-ptr-deref in rxe_qp_do_cleanup() when socket create failed<br />
<br />
There is a null-ptr-deref when mount.cifs over rdma:<br />
<br />
BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in rxe_qp_do_cleanup+0x2f3/0x360 [rdma_rxe]<br />
Read of size 8 at addr 0000000000000018 by task mount.cifs/3046<br />

Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-1.fc3<br />

<br />
The root cause of the issue is the socket create failed in<br />
rxe_qp_init_req().<br />
<br />
So move the reset rxe_qp_do_cleanup() after the NULL ptr check.
