The earlier patch I posted wasn't correct. I was looking for
comments about how kmem_cache_free() is called when
recv_mad_agent->agent.recv_handler() is called.
Hal didn't answer directly so I checked the code and I see that
the receive handler is responsible for calling ib_free_recv_mad()
which does the work.

Hal just wanted me to test it, which I did.
