Since commit 2a8513091d2f ("nvme-rdma: parallelize I/O queue allocation

the tag set before the new queues are set up. queue->ctrl is only set
by nvme_rdma_setup_io_queues(), so I/O submitted in between reaches
nvme_rdma_queue_rq() on a queue that was never allocated and
dereferences a NULL queue->ctrl:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000034c
RIP: 0010:nvme_rdma_queue_rq+0x52/0xb90
Set queue->ctrl for every queue when allocating the controller. Such
requests are then requeued like on any other queue that is not live.
