Subject: [PATCH] cxgb3i: ref count cdev access to prevent modification while in use

--- Exception: c01 (System Call) at 00000080da560cfc

The root cause was an EEH error, which sent us down the offload_close path in
the cxgb3 driver, which in turn sets cdev->lldev to NULL, without regard for
upper layer driver (like the cxgbi drivers) which might have execution contexts
in the middle of its use. The result is the oops above, when t3_l2t_get attempts
to dereference cdev->lldev right after the EEH error handler sets it to NULL.

The fix is to reference count the cdev structure.  When an EEH error occurs, the
shutdown path:
t3_adapter_error->offload_close->cxgb3i_remove_clients->cxgb3i_dev_close
will now block until such time as the cdev pointer has a use count of zero.
This coupled with the fact that lookups will now skip finding any registered
cdev's in cxgbi_device_find_by_[lldev|netdev] with the CXGBI_FLAG_ADAPTER_RESET
bit set ensures that on an EEH, the setting of lldev to NULL in offload_close
will only happen after there are no longer any active users of the data
structure.

This has been tested by the reporter and shown to fix the reproted oops
