Change the rpcrdma_xprt_disconnect() function so that it no longer waits for the DISCONNECTED event. This prevents blocking if the remote is unresponsive. In rpcrdma_xprt_disconnect(), the transport's rpcrdma_ep is detached. Upon return from rpcrdma_xprt_disconnect(), the transport (r_xprt) is ready immediately for a new connection. The RDMA_CM_DEVICE_REMOVAL and RDMA_CM_DISCONNECTED events are now handled almost identically. However, because the lifetimes of rpcrdma_xprt structures and rpcrdma_ep structures are now independent, creating an rpcrdma_ep needs to take a module ref count. The ep now owns most of the hardware resources for a transport. Also, a kref is needed to ensure that rpcrdma_ep sticks around long enough for the cm_event_handler to finish.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
