With the proposed change that conn->lgr gets not even set when the registration fails we would not need the "conn->lgr = NULL;" after label out_unreg? And as far as I understand the invocation of smc_lgr_schedule_free_work(lgr) is only needed after label "create", because when an existing link group was found and the registration failed then its free work would already be started when no more connections are assigned to the link group, right?
