IB/uverbs: Fix checking of userspace object ownership
Upstream as cbfb50e6e2e9c580848c0f51d37c24cdfb1cb704 Commit 9ead190b ("IB/uverbs: Don't serialize with ib_uverbs_idr_mutex") rewrote how userspace objects are looked up in the uverbs module's idrs, and introduced a severe bug in the process: there is no checking that an operation is being performed by the right process any more. Fix this by adding the missing check of uobj->context in __idr_get_uobj(). Apparently everyone is being very careful to only touch their own objects, because this bug was introduced in June 2006 in 2.6.18, and has gone undetected until now.
