RDMA/core: Allow detaching gid attribute netdevice for RoCE
When there is active traffic through a GID, a QP/AH holds reference to this GID entry. RoCE GID entry holds reference to its attached netdevice. Due to this when netdevice is deleted by admin user, its refcount is not dropped. Therefore, while deleting RoCE GID, wait for all GID attribute's netdev users to finish accessing netdev in rcu context. Once all users done accessing it, release the netdev refcount.
