Subject: [Patch v2 14/19] CIFS: SMBD: Deregister memory when finishing SMB write

From: Long Li <longli@...rosoft.com>

On write I/O finish, deregister the memory region if this was for a RDMA read. The call to smbd_deregister_mr will do local invalidation and possibly wait, if remote invalidate is not used.
