[openib-general] [RFC] [PATCH] ib_unregister_client()

[Krishna Kumar2]

Whenever a client is started, it registers with each device present on
the system. Every client is always registered exactly once (RFC part
here - so far no client registers itself twice but should we care for such
a scenario happening in future?), hence there is one context per client
and ib_unregister_client() can break on matching that client.
