IPoIB: Close race in setting mcast->ah
ipoib_mcast_send() tests mcast->ah twice. If this value is changed
between these two points, we leak an skb. However,
ipoib_mcast_join_finish() sets mcast->ah with no locking, so it could
race against ipoib_mcast_send().
As a solution, take priv->lock around assignment to mcast->ah thus
making sure ipoib_mcast_send() (which also takes priv->lock) is not in
flight.
