A DREQ is sent in 2 situations:
1. When requested by the user.
This DREQ has to wait for a DREP, which will be routed to the user.
2. When the cm_id is destroyed.
This DREQ is generated by the CM to notify the peer that the
connection has been destroyed.
In the latter case, any DREP that is received will be discarded.
There's no need to hold a reference on the cm_id. Today, both
situations are covered by the same function: cm_send_dreq_locked().
When invoked in the cm_id destroy path, the cm_id reference would be
held until the DREQ completes, blocking the destruction. Because it
could take several seconds to minutes before the DREQ receives a DREP,
the destroy call posts a send for the DREQ then immediately cancels the
MAD. However, cancellation is not immediate in the MAD layer. There
could still be a delay before the MAD layer returns the DREQ to the CM.
Moreover, the only guarantee is that the DREQ will be sent at most once.
Introduce a separate flow for sending a DREQ when destroying the cm_id.
The new flow will not hold a reference on the cm_id, allowing it to be
cleaned up immediately. The cancellation trick is no longer needed.
The MAD layer will send the DREQ exactly once.
