IB/mlx4: Fix race condition between catas error reset and aliasguid flows

Jack Morgenstein · jgunthorpe · commit 587443e7773e · 2019-03-17T21:40:39.000-03:00
Code review revealed a race condition which could allow the catas error flow to interrupt the alias guid query post mechanism at random points. Thiis is fixed by doing cancel_delayed_work_sync() instead of cancel_delayed_work() during the alias guid mechanism destroy flow.
