4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
[ Upstream commit 14fa91e0fef8e4d6feb8b1fa2a807828e0abe815 ]
netdev_wait_allrefs() could rebroadcast NETDEV_UNREGISTER event
multiple times until all refs are gone, which will result in calling
ipoib_delete_debug_files multiple times and printing a warning.
Remove the WARN_ONCE since checks of NULL pointers before calling
debugfs_remove are not needed.
Fixes: 771a52584096 ("IB/IPoIB: ibX: failed to create mcg debug file")
