  - RDMA/rxe: Fix responder UAF on IB_QP_MAX_DEST_RD_ATOMIC modify_qp rxe_qp_from_attr() handles
    IB_QP_MAX_DEST_RD_ATOMIC outside the IB_QP_STATE path, so it holds no state_lock and runs while the
    responder task rxe_receiver() (recv_task on rxe_wq) is live. A modify_qp() setting only that attribute
    calls free_rd_atomic_resources() then alloc_rd_atomic_resources(), swapping qp->resp.resources[] while
    rxe_prepare_res()/find_resource() walk it; free_rd_atomic_resources() also leaves the cached pointer
    qp->resp.res dangling. A local unprivileged user can race the free/realloc into a use-after-free in
    rxe_receiver() (local DoS). Drain recv_task around the swap with rxe_disable_task()/rxe_enable_task(), as
    rxe_qp_reset() already does when tearing this array down, re-enabling only after
    alloc_rd_atomic_resources() succeeds so the responder never resumes against a NULL qp->resp.resources on
    the ENOMEM path. Also clear qp->resp.res in free_rd_atomic_resources(), like the rxe_resp.c completion
    paths. Reproduced under KASAN; the slab-use-after-free in rxe_receiver() is gone. (CVE-2026-80864)
