Subject: [PATCH 5.3 041/163] RDMA/mlx5: Order num_pending_prefetch properly with synchronize_srcu

From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@...lanox.com>

[ Upstream commit aa116b810ac9077a263ed8679fb4d595f180e0eb ]

During destroy setting live = 0 and then synchronize_srcu() prevents
num_pending_prefetch from incrementing, and also, ensures that all work
holding that count is queued on the WQ. Testing before causes races of the
form:

    CPU0                                         CPU1
  dereg_mr()
                                          mlx5_ib_advise_mr_prefetch()
            				   srcu_read_lock()
                                            num_pending_prefetch_inc()
					      if (!live)
   live = 0
   atomic_read() == 0
     // skip flush_workqueue()
                                              atomic_inc()
 					      queue_work();
            				   srcu_read_unlock()
   WARN_ON(atomic_read())  // Fails

Swap the order so that the synchronize_srcu() prevents this.
