free_rd_atomic_resources() iterates using qp->attr.max_dest_rd_atomic.
Updating max_dest_rd_atomic before freeing the old array can make the
free path walk past the old allocation and trigger a slab out-of-bounds

Fix the OOB by moving the assignment after free_rd_atomic_resources()
so the old array is freed using the old bound. This matches the original
ordering in commit 8700e3e7c485 ("Soft RoCE driver").
