[PATCH] rds: avoid potential stack overflow

The rds_iw_add_conn function stores a large 'struct rds_sock'
object on the stack in order to pass a pair of addresses. This
happens to just fit withint the 1024 byte stack size warning
limit on x86, but just exceed that limit on ARM, which gives
us this warning:

net/rds/iw_rdma.c:200:1: warning: the frame size of 1056 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

The warning is correct in principle, though unlikely to be
related to a serious problem.

As the use of this large variable is basically bogus, we can
rearrange the code to not do that. Instead of passing an
rds socket into rds_iw_get_device, we now just pass the two
addresses that we have available in rds_iw_update_cm_id, and
we change rds_iw_get_mr accordingly, to create two address
structures on the stack there.
