Chiara Meiohas 5f8ca04fdd RDMA/device: Remove optimization in ib_device_get_netdev()
The caller of ib_device_get_netdev() relies on its result to accurately
match a given netdev with the ib device associated netdev.

ib_device_get_netdev returns NULL when the IB device associated
netdev is unregistering, preventing the caller of matching netdevs properly.

Thus, remove this optimization and return the netdev even if
it is undergoing unregistration, allowing matching by the caller.

This change ensures proper netdev matching and reference count handling
by the caller of ib_device_get_netdev/ib_device_set_netdev API.

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 reStructuredText 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.
