5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit 2b23b6097303ed0ba5f4bc036a1c07b6027af5c6 upstream.
In rxe_comp_queue_pkt() an incoming response packet skb is enqueued to the resp_pkts queue and then a decision is made whether to run the completer task inline or schedule it. Finally the skb is dereferenced to bump a 'hw' performance counter. This is wrong because if the completer task is already running in a separate thread it may have already processed the skb and freed it which can cause a seg fault. This has been observed infrequently in testing at high scale.
This patch fixes this by changing the order of enqueuing the packet until after the counter is accessed.
