Subject: [PATCH] RDMA/cma: Don't warn when device removal races with rdma_resolve_addr()
Author: kartikey406@gmail.com

#syz test: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master


rdma_resolve_addr() on an unbound ID (RDMA_CM_IDLE) first binds it with
cma_bind_addr() and then moves it from RDMA_CM_ADDR_BOUND to
RDMA_CM_ADDR_QUERY with a second cma_comp_exch(). These are two
separate steps. Once the ID is bound it is attached to the device, so
cma_send_device_removal_put() can find it and set RDMA_CM_DEVICE_REMOVAL
before the second step runs. The exchange then fails and hits the
WARN_ON() added by the commit below.

syzbot triggers this with RDS over rxe, where rds_connect_worker()
calls rdma_resolve_addr() while the rxe device is being deleted:

  WARNING: drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4120 at resolve_prepare_src
  Call Trace:
   rdma_resolve_addr
   rds_ib_conn_path_connect
   rds_connect_worker

This is a valid race and not a kernel bug. If removal wins before the
bind, cma_bind_addr() already fails and the error is returned to the
caller, and err_state in the same function already ignores a failed
state exchange. The caller gets -EINVAL, and RDS destroys the ID on any
error from rdma_resolve_addr(), so nothing is leaked.

Drop the WARN_ON() and keep returning -EINVAL, and document in a comment
that the state may change because of device removal.
