IB/srp: Avoid that writing into "add_target" hangs due to a cable pull

If a cable is pulled while srp_connect_target() is in progress
that can result in that function never to return. That makes the
process, e.g. srp_daemon, that invoked this function unkillable.
Avoid this by letting srp_connect_target() finish if the event
IB_CM_TIMEWAIT_EXIT is received. This patch fixes a hang with the
following call trace:
