IB/mthca: Fix potential AB-BA deadlock with CQ locks
When destroying a QP, mthca locks both the QP's send CQ and receive CQ. However, the following scenario is perfectly valid: QP_a: send_cq == CQ_x, recv_cq == CQ_y QP_b: send_cq == CQ_y, recv_cq == CQ_x The old mthca code simply locked send_cq and then recv_cq, which in this case could lead to an AB-BA deadlock if QP_a and QP_b were destroyed simultaneously. We can fix this by changing the locking code to lock the CQ with the lower CQ number first, which will create a consistent lock ordering. Also, the second CQ is locked with spin_lock_nested() to tell lockdep that we know what we're doing with the lock nesting. This bug was found by lockdep.
