RDMA/core: Fix use after free in ib_query_qp()
When querying a QP via the netlink flow the only synchronization
mechanism for the said QP is rdma_restrack_get(), meanwhile during the
QP destroy path rdma_restrack_del() is called at the end of the
ib_destroy_qp_user() function which is too late, since by then the
vendor specific resources for said QP would already be destroyed, and
till the rdma_restrack_del() is called this QP can still be accessed,
which could cause the use after free below.
Fix this by moving the rdma_restrack_begin_del() to the start of the
ib_destroy_qp_user(), which in turn waits for all usages of the QP to be
done then removes it from the database to prevent access to it while it
is being destroyed.
