?? I don't see that.

struct ib_umad_file {
        struct mutex            mutex;
        struct ib_umad_port    *port;
        struct list_head        recv_list;
        struct list_head        send_list;
        struct list_head        port_list;
        spinlock_t              send_lock;
        wait_queue_head_t       recv_wait;
        struct ib_mad_agent    *agent[IB_UMAD_MAX_AGENTS];
        int                     agents_dead;
        u8                      use_pkey_index;
        u8                      already_used;
};

No 'ib_umad_device' in there.
