[PATCH v4] staging: lustre: separate a connection destroy from free struct kib_conn

[Dmitry Eremin]

The logic of the original commit 4d99b2581eff ("staging: lustre: avoid
intensive reconnecting for ko2iblnd") was assumed conditional free of
struct kib_conn if the second argument free_conn in function
kiblnd_destroy_conn(struct kib_conn *conn, bool free_conn) is true.
But this hunk of code was dropped from original commit. As result the logic
works wrong and current code use struct kib_conn after free.

To avoid confusion this fix moved the freeing a struct kib_conn outside of
the function kiblnd_destroy_conn() and free as it was intended in original
commit.

Changes in v4:
    - fixed the issue with use after free by moving the freeing a struct
