IB/iser: Protect iser state machine with a mutex
The iser connection state lookups and transitions are not fully protected.
Some transitions are protected with a spinlock, and in some cases the
state is accessed unprotected due to specific assumptions of the flow.
Introduce a new mutex to protect the connection state access. We use a
mutex since we need to also include a scheduling operations executed
under the state lock.
Each state transition/condition and its corresponding action will be
protected with the state mutex.
The rdma_cm events handler acquires the mutex when handling connection
events. Since iser connection state can transition to DOWN
concurrently during connection establishment, we bailout from
addr/route resolution events when the state is not PENDING.
This addresses a scenario where ep_poll retries expire during CMA
connection establishment. In this case ep_disconnect is invoked while
CMA events keep coming (address/route resolution, connected, etc...).
