When disabling and removing a receive context, it is possible for an
asynchronous event (i.e IRQ) to occur. Because of this, there is a race
between cleaning up the context, and the context being used by the
asynchronous event.
cpu 0 (context cleanup)
rc->ref_count-- (ref_count == 0)
hfi1_rcd_free()
cpu 1 (IRQ (with rcd index))
rcd_get_by_index()
lock
ref_count+++ <-- reference count race (WARNING)
return rcd
unlock
cpu 0
hfi1_free_ctxtdata() <-- incorrect free location
lock
remove rcd from array
unlock
free rcd
This race will cause the following WARNING trace:

Use the appropriate kref API to verify access.
Reorder context cleanup to ensure context removal before cleanup occurs
correctly.

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.
