The path_rec_completion() callback may be invoked asynchronously even
at the middle of "driver uninit" process.  This can lead to scheduling
a task that tries to touch members of the priv object that are no
longer valid.  For example the function cm_create_tx_qp can attempt to
create qp with no valid priv->pd object.

The following crash is one of the results:
RIP: 0010:[<ffffffffa021bb47>]  [<ffffffffa021bb47>] ipoib_cm_create_tx_qp+0x57/0x90 [ib_ipoib]
Process ipoib (pid: 5916, threadinfo ffff8803786e4000, task ffff8804150e1500)

Fix that by flushing all pending path queries at this point.
