It is a matter of unwind sequence, if IB/core did something after
driver created some object, it will need to call to destroy of this
object too. So I don't think that it is the bug.

And yes, it is not applicable for all flows, the one which caused me to
write this patch is failure in ib_uverbs_reg_mr(), which will call to
ib_dereg_mr_user(mr, &attrs->driver_udata);

and attrs->driver_udata is valid there.

Not anymore, the destroy paths are not relying on udata now.
