smc_pnet_find_ib() returns an ib device pointer and releases the lock,
then smc_pnet_apply_ib() is called to use this pointer. The device could
be removed between these two calls, leading to a potential use-after-free
when accessing the freed ib_dev pointer.

        list_for_each_entry() ...
        mutex_unlock(&smc_ib_devices.mutex)

                                      kfree(smcibdev)
      smc_pnet_apply_ib(ib_dev)
        ib_dev->pnetid[ib_port - 1]   <- UAF (ib_dev already freed)

Fix this by introducing smc_pnet_find_ib_apply() which performs both
find and apply under the same lock, preventing the device from being
removed in between.

Also refactor smc_pnet_apply_ib() into __smc_pnet_apply_ib() (without
lock) and smc_pnet_apply_ib() (with lock) for reuse.
