Re: Re: [PATCH] infiniband/core: Fix a use after free in cm_work_handler

In the implementation of destory_cm_id(), it restores cm_id_priv by
"cm_id_priv = container_of(cm_id, struct iwcm_id_private, id);".

And the last line of destory_cm_id() calls "(void)iwcm_deref_id(cm_id_priv);"
to free the cm_id_priv.
