[openib-general] [git patch review 3/5] [IB] uverbs: Avoid NULL pointer deref on CQ async event

Userspace CQs that have no completion event channel attached end up
with their cq_context set to NULL.  However, asynchronous events like
"CQ overrun" can still occur on such CQs, so add a uverbs_file member
to struct ib_ucq_object that we can follow to deliver these events.
