Subject: [PATCH 3/3] iw_cxgb4: fix srqidx leak during connection abort

When an application aborts the connection by moving QP from RTS to
ERROR, then iw_cxgb4's modify_rc_qp() RTS->ERROR logic sets the
*srqidxp to 0 via t4_set_wq_in_error(&qhp->wq, 0), and aborts the
connection by calling c4iw_ep_disconnect().

c4iw_ep_disconnect() does the following:
 1. sends up a close_complete_upcall(ep, -ECONNRESET) to libcxgb4.
 2. sends abort request CPL to hw.

But, since the close_complete_upcall() is sent before sending the
ABORT_REQ to hw, libcxgb4 would fail to release the srqidx if the
connection holds one. Because, the srqidx is passed up to libcxgb4
only after corresponding ABORT_RPL is processed by kernel in
abort_rpl().

This patch handle the corner-case by moving the call to
close_complete_upcall() from c4iw_ep_disconnect() to abort_rpl().
So that libcxgb4 is notified about the -ECONNRESET only after
abort_rpl(), and libcxgb4 can relinquish the srqidx properly.
