IB/core: Make ib_dealloc_pd return void

Browse source 
The majority of callers never check the return value, and even if they
did, they can't do anything about a failure.

All possible failure cases represent a bug in the caller, so just
WARN_ON inside the function instead.

This fixes a few random errors:
 net/rd/iw.c infinite loops while it fails. (racing with EBUSY?)

This also lays the ground work to get rid of error return from the
drivers. Most drivers do not error, the few that do are broken since
it cannot be handled.

Since uverbs can legitimately make use of EBUSY, open code the
check.
