Jason Gunthorpe 25405d98a2 IB/ipoib: Do not remove child devices from within the ndo_uninit
Switching to priv_destructor and needs_free_netdev created a subtle
ordering problem in ipoib_remove_one.

Now that unregister_netdev frees the netdev and priv we must ensure that
the children are unregistered before trying to unregister the parent,
or child unregister will use after free.

The solution is to unregister the children, then parent, in the same batch
all while holding the rtnl_lock. This closes all the races where a new
child could have been added and ensures proper ordering.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
