Actually from looking at the current libibverbs code, it seems that
the QP pointer in an event of type IBV_EVENT_COMM_EST is garbage.  So
although there's a real issue to be resolved with destroying userspace
objects with pending events, I think what Arlin is hitting must be
something simpler and dumber.

In any case I should have a full solution tomorrow.  It requires a
kernel ABI bump but I'll make sure the new library works with old
kernels.
