Looks good.

Delay a bit the initialization of zero_page in ceph_msgr_init and
reorder it's cleanup in _ceph_msgr_exit for readability sake.

I'd say it's not readability, but a proper ordering (tear down
in reverse order of set up).

BUG_ON() will not suffer to be postponed in case it is triggered.

This is unrelated, but in cases like this (where there's already
something in place to return an error) we should replace these
BUG_ON() calls with logged errors and a return.  They should
never ever happen, of course (they represent design problems)
but if it did it's better to allow the system to keep running.
