I am not happy with this patch. You are right that this is a problem,
but the fix should be much simpler: set ini->smcrv2.ib_dev_v2 = NULL in
smc_find_rdma_v2_device_serv() after the not_found label, just like it is
done in a similar way for the ISM device in smc_find_ism_v1_device_serv().
Your patch changes many more things, and beside that you eliminated the calls
to smc_find_ism_store_rc() completely, which is not correct.
Since your patch was already applied (btw. 3:20 hours after you submitted it),
please revert it and resend. Thank you.
