Message:
[DAPL2] wait for async processing thread to actually exit.
DAPL doesn't actually wait for the async processing thread to exit before
allowing the library to close. It will wait up to 10 seconds, which under
heavy load isn't enough time. Since the thread is created by an application
level thread, it will continue to run as long as the application runs.  But
if the application closes the library, then all library data and code is
invalid, which can result in the thread running
something that's not library code and accessing freed memory.

With this change, I was able to run MPI ping-pong, 16 ranks on a single
system (scm provider) without crashes 1300 times.

[DAPL2] add cleanup/release code for timer thread dapl_set_timer() creates
a thread to process timers for dat_ep_connect but provides no mechanism to
destroy/exit during dapl library unload. Timers are initialized in library
init code and should be released in the fini code. Add a dapl_timer_release
call to the dapl_fini function to check state of timer thread and destroy
before exiting.

Message:
[WinVerbs] fix crash accessing freed memory from async thread
If an application exits while asynchronous accept processing is queued,
it's possible for the async processing to access the IbCmId after it has
been freed.  A similar problem to this was fixed that dealt with accessing
the verbs QP handle.

A simpler, more generic solution to this problem is to handle application
exit in the same manner as device removal, and lock the winverb provider
lookup lists with exclusive access.  Asynchronous operations that are in
process will run to completion, and future operations will be blocked until
the provider cleanup thread has completed.  Once they run, they will fail
to acquire a reference on the desired object, which should result in a
Graceful failure.

This avoids more complicated locking to use handles belonging to the lower
level code.  If a reference on an object can be acquired, the handle will
be available for use until the reference is released.  To handle IB CM
callbacks, additional state checking is required to avoid processing
CM events when we're trying to destroy the endpoint.

Message:
[IBAL] use non-pageable memory to prevent possible problems on power down.

IBAL uses pageable memory to create PnP context. It can create possible problems
in power down flows at the time of system contention. We saw a similar case at a customer.
There is no strong evidence that this is what influenced, but with this patch IBAL will be
more safe and at no cost.
WinOF 2.1 testing has demonstrated that with this patch, infrequent (1 out of 10) power-down
BSOD have disappeared.

Message:
[WINVERBS] winverbs: fix race in async connect handling.  If an application calls
Connect or Accept, their IRP is queued to a work queue for asynchronous processing.
However, if the application crashes or exits before the work queue can process
the IRP, the cleanup code will call WvEpFree().  This destroys the IbCmId.
When the work queue finally runs, it can access a freed IbCmId. This is bad.
A similar race exists with the QP and the asynchronous disconnect processing.
The disconnect processing can access a the hVerbsQp handle after it has been destroyed.

Additionally, in all three cases, the IRPs assume that the WV provider is able
to process IRPs. Specifically, they require that the index tables maintained by
the provider are still valid.  References must be held on the WV provider until
the IRPs finish their processing to ensure this.
Fix invalid accesses to the IbCmId and hVerbsQp handles by locking around their
use after valid state checks.  In the case of the QP, we add a guarded mutex for
synchronization purposes and use that in place where the PD mutex had been used.
