When a RDMA device goes away we must destroy all it's associated
RDMA resources. RDMa device resets also manifest as device removal
events and a short while after they come back. We want to re-activate
a port listener on this RDMA device when it comes back in to the system.
I really detest this series. It just shows how messed up the whole
IB core interaction is. The right way to fix this is to stop treating
a IB device reset as a device removal, and give it a different event.
And also make sure we have a single unified event system instead of
three separate ones.
I've raised this claim before, but got resistance from Doug:

At that point, in the lack of change in the RDMA interface, this
is pretty much what we can do to support device resets...
