Not sure if it's worth turning this into a helper since both patches do
the same thing. Probably not, since you'd need to pass in the mutex and
state too. In any case, why not just break if you hit
NVMET_RDMA_Q_DISCONNECTING rather than keep looping? You don't care
about the exact count, jsut whether it's non-zero or not.
