[ofa-general] [PATCH] IB/core: initialize mad_agent_priv before putting on lists

There is a potential race in ib_register_mad_agent() where the struct
ib_mad_agent_private is not fully initialized before it is added
to the list of agents per IB port. This means the ib_mad_agent_private
could be seen before the refcount, spin locks, and linked lists
are initialized. The fix is to initialize the structure earlier.
