NFS/RDMA Release resources in svcrdma when device is removed
When removing underlying RDMA device, the rmmod will hang forever if there are any outstanding NFS/RDMA client mounts. The outstanding NFS/RDMA counts could also prevent the server from shutting down. Further debugging shows that the existing connections are not teared down and resource are not released when receiving RDMA_CM_EVENT_DEVICE_REMOVAL event. It seems the original code missing svc_xprt_put() in RDMA_CM_EVENT_REMOVAL event handler thus svc_xprt_free is never invoked to release the existing connection resources. The patch has been passed removing, adding device back and forth without stopping NFS/RDMA service. This will also allow a device to be unplugged and swapped out without shutting down NFS service.
