The point i'm struggling was that, it's strange/opaque to move rxe_register_device().
There is no doubt that the original order was more clear.

In terms of the message content, is it valuable to print(pr_info) this message, i noticed
that there is a duplicate pr_dbg() in rxe_notify().

rxe's mtu is always same with the NIC, isn't it ?
