IB: Improve uverbs_cleanup_ucontext algorithm
Improve uverbs_cleanup_ucontext algorithm to work properly when the
topology graph of the objects cannot be determined at compile time. This
is the case with objects created via the devx interface in mlx5.
Typically uverbs objects must be created in a strict topologically sorted
order, so that LIFO ordering will generally cause them to be freed
properly. There are only a few cases (eg memory windows) where objects can
point to things out of the strict LIFO order.
Instead of using an explicit ordering scheme where the HW destroy is not
allowed to fail, go over the list multiple times and allow the destroy
function to fail. If progress halts then a final, desperate, cleanup is
done before leaking the memory. This indicates a driver bug.
