Michal Kalderon reports a BUG that occurs just after device removal: [ 169.112490] rpcrdma: removing device qedr0 for 192.168.110.146:20049 [ 169.143909] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000010 [ 169.181837] IP: rpcrdma_dma_unmap_regbuf+0xa/0x60 [rpcrdma] The RPC/RDMA client transport attempts to allocate some resources on demand. Registered buffers are one such resource. These are allocated (or re-allocated) by xprt_rdma_allocate to hold RPC Call and Reply messages. A hardware resource is associated with each of these buffers, as they can be used for a Send or Receive Work Request. If a device is removed from under an NFS/RDMA mount, the transport layer is responsible for releasing all hardware resources before the device can be finally unplugged. A BUG results when the NFS mount hasn't yet seen much activity: the transport tries to release resources that haven't yet been allocated. rpcrdma_free_regbuf() already checks for this case, so just move that check to cover the DEVICE_REMOVAL case as well.
