[IB] umad: avoid potential deadlock when unregistering MAD agents
ib_unregister_mad_agent() completes all pending MAD sends and waits
for the agent's send_handler routine to return. umad's send_handler()
calls queue_packet(), which does down_read() on the port mutex to look
up the agent ID. This means that the port mutex cannot be held for
writing while calling ib_unregister_mad_agent(), or else it will
deadlock. This patch fixes all the calls to ib_unregister_mad_agent()
in the umad module to avoid this deadlock.
