Leon Romanovsky be855252eb RDMA/mlx5: Fix multiple NULL-ptr deref errors in rereg_mr flow
commit b4bd701ac469075d94ed9699a28755f2862252b9 upstream.

Failure in rereg MR releases UMEM but leaves the MR to be destroyed
by the user. As a result the following scenario may happen:
"create MR -> rereg MR with failure -> call to rereg MR again" and
hit "NULL-ptr deref or user memory access" errors.

Ensure that rereg MR is only performed on a non-dead MR.

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
