rds_ib_remove_one() drops every connection on the device's conn_list
in rds_ib_dev_shutdown(), then clears the client data so that no new
connect can find the device.  A connect that is already past
rds_ib_get_client_data() when the walk runs is not covered by either:
rds_ib_setup_qp() goes on to rds_ib_add_conn(), which moves the
connection onto the conn_list the walk has just finished with, and
builds a QP on a device that is on its way out.  Nothing drops that
connection afterwards - the device's shutdown walk is over, and the
connection never returns to ib_nodev_conns, which is the only list the
transport exit sweeps - so it outlives the device, and the module.

Make rds_ib_dev_shutdown() mark the device as shutting down under
rds_ibdev->spinlock before it walks conn_list, and have
rds_ib_add_conn() refuse, under the same lock, to attach a connection
to a device so marked.  Every connection is then either on the list
when the walk drops it, or refused: the connect fails, the connection
stays on ib_nodev_conns, and either its own drop or the exit sweep
tears it down.  rds_ib_setup_qp() has not taken anything from the
device at that point, so the failure needs no unwinding beyond the
client-data reference it already releases.

This mirrors the UEK gate on the device removal flag in
rds_ib_add_conn().
