Remove the complicated logic to free the cm_id resources in iw_cm event handlers vs when an application thread destroys the device. I'm not sure why this code was written, but simply allowing the last deref to free the memory is cleaner. It also prevents a deadlock when applications try to destroy cm_id's in their cm event handler function.
The description here is misleading. we can never destroy the cm_id inside the cm_id handler. Also, I don't think the deadlock was on cm_id removal but rather on the qp referenced by the cm_id. I think the change log can be improved. The patch looks fine to me. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
