Roland Dreier 1bf66a3042 IB: Put rlimit accounting struct in struct ib_umem 
When memory pinned with ib_umem_get() is released, ib_umem_release()
needs to subtract the amount of memory being unpinned from
mm->locked_vm.  However, ib_umem_release() may be called with
mm->mmap_sem already held for writing if the memory is being released
as part of an munmap() call, so it is sometimes necessary to defer
this accounting into a workqueue.

However, the work struct used to defer this accounting is dynamically
allocated before it is queued, so there is the possibility of failing
that allocation.  If the allocation fails, then ib_umem_release has no
choice except to bail out and leave the process with a permanently
elevated locked_vm.

Fix this by allocating the structure to defer accounting as part of
the original struct ib_umem, so there's no possibility of failing a
later allocation if creating the struct ib_umem and pinning memory
succeeds.
