Why can't use ndo_init() and ndo_uninit() here (just like open and stop below).
We really don't need to pass in hca here (or in any other interface function) as it is already made available to the driver during alloc_rdma_netdev. Also, why qp_num is an output parameter in the init function? Ipoib can access rn->qp_num which this init function is returning.

+struct net_device *mlx5_alloc_rdma_netdev(struct ib_device *hca,
+				     u8 port_num,
+				     enum rdma_netdev_t type,
+				     const char *name,
+				     unsigned char name_assign_type,
+				     void (*setup)(struct net_device *))
+{

Probably need to check the 'type' here as any rdma netdev client can call this function (with different rdma_netdev type) and cause driver to misbehave.

+void mlx5_free_rdma_netdev(struct net_device *netdev)
+{
+}

May be it is safer and cleaner for this function undo what alloc does here (instead of doing it in other places)?
