[git patch review 3/5] [IB] uverbs: Avoid NULL pointer deref on CQasync event

From: Roland Dreier
Date: Mon Oct 31 2005 - 17:36:06 EST


Userspace CQs that have no completion event channel attached end up
with their cq_context set to NULL. However, asynchronous events like
"CQ overrun" can still occur on such CQs, so add a uverbs_file member
to struct ib_ucq_object that we can follow to deliver these events.
