ib_unregister_device_queued() can only be used by drivers using the new
dealloc_device callback flow, and it has a safety WARN_ON to ensure
drivers are using it properly.
However, if unregister and register are raced there is a special
destruction path that maintains the uniform error handling semantic of
'caller does ib_dealloc_device() on failure'. This requires disabling the
dealloc_device callback which triggers the WARN_ON.
Instead of using NULL to disable the callback use a special function
pointer so the WARN_ON does not trigger.

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.
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.
