[PATCH rdma-rc 7/9] RDMA/rxe: Fix soft lockup problem due to using tasklets in softirq

[Leon Romanovsky <leon@kernel.org>]

From: Zhu Yanjun <yanjunz@mellanox.com>

When run stress tests with RXE, the following Call Traces often occur
"
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 22s! [swapper/2:0]
...
Call Trace:
<IRQ>
create_object+0x3f/0x3b0

</IRQ>
...
"
The root cause is that tasklet is actually a softirq. In a tasklet handler,
another softirq handler is triggered. Usually these softirq handlers run
on the same cpu core. So this will cause "soft lockup Bug".
