Jason Gunthorpe aba94548c9 IB/uverbs: Move the FD uobj type struct file allocation to alloc_commit
Allocating the struct file during alloc_begin creates this strange
asymmetry with IDR, where the FD has two krefs pointing at it during the
pre-commit phase. In particular this makes the abort process for FD very
strange and confusing.

For instance abort currently calls the type's destroy_object twice, and
the fops release once if abort is done. This is very counter intuitive. No
fops should be called until alloc_commit succeeds, and destroy_object
should only ever be called once.

Moving the struct file allocation to the alloc_commit is now simple, as we
already support failure of rdma_alloc_commit_uobject, with all the
required rollback pieces.

This creates an understandable symmetry with IDR and simplifies/fixes the
abort handling for FD types.

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.
