RDMA/irdma: Fix KASAN issue with tasklet

KASAN testing revealed the following issue assocated with freeing an IRQ.

[50006.466686] Call Trace: [50006.466691] <IRQ> [50006.489538] dump_stack+0x5c/0x80 [50006.493475] print_address_description.constprop.6+0x1a/0x150 [50006.499872] ? irdma_sc_process_ceq+0x483/0x790 [irdma] [50006.505742] ? irdma_sc_process_ceq+0x483/0x790 [irdma] [50006.511644] kasan_report.cold.11+0x7f/0x118 [50006.516572] ? irdma_sc_process_ceq+0x483/0x790 [irdma] [50006.522473] irdma_sc_process_ceq+0x483/0x790 [irdma] [50006.528232] irdma_process_ceq+0xb2/0x400 [irdma] [50006.533601] ? irdma_hw_flush_wqes_callback+0x370/0x370 [irdma] [50006.540298] irdma_ceq_dpc+0x44/0x100 [irdma] [50006.545306] tasklet_action_common.isra.14+0x148/0x2c0 [50006.551096] __do_softirq+0x1d0/0xaf8 [50006.555396] irq_exit_rcu+0x219/0x260 [50006.559670] irq_exit+0xa/0x20 [50006.563320] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x1bf/0x690 [50006.568645] apic_timer_interrupt+0xf/0x20 [50006.573341] </IRQ>

The issue is that a tasklet could be pending on another core racing the delete of the irq.

Fix by insuring any scheduled tasklet is killed after deleting the irq.

It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-6270)

It was discovered that the Atheros 802.11ac wireless driver did not properly validate certain data structures, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2023-7042)

It was discovered that the HugeTLB file system component of the Linux Kernel contained a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability. A privileged attacker could possibly use this to to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2024-0841)

It was discovered that the Intel Data Streaming and Intel Analytics Accelerator drivers in the Linux kernel allowed direct access to the devices for unprivileged users and virtual machines. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2024-21823)

Yuxuan Hu discovered that the Bluetooth RFCOMM protocol driver in the Linux Kernel contained a race condition, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-22099)

It was discovered that the MediaTek SoC Gigabit Ethernet driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition when stopping the device. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (device unavailability). (CVE-2024-27432)
