RDMA/netdev: Fix netlink support in IPoIB
IPoIB netlink support was broken by the below commit since integrating the rdma_netdev support relies on an allocation flow for netdevs that was controlled by the ipoib driver while netdev's rtnl_newlink implementation assumes that the netdev will be allocated by netlink. Such situation leads to crash in __ipoib_device_add, once trying to reuse netlink device. This patch fixes the kernel oops for both mlx4 and mlx5 devices triggered by the following command: Fixes: cd565b4b51e5 ("IB/IPoIB: Support acceleration options callbacks") Signed-off-by: Denis Drozdov <denisd@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Feras Daoud <ferasda@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com>
