Uverbs device should be cleaned up only when there is no
potential usage of.
As part of ib_uverbs_remove_one which might be triggered upon reset flow
the device reference count is decreased as expected and leave the final
cleanup to the FDs that were opened.
Current code increases reference count upon opening a new command FD and
decreases it upon closing the file. The event FD is opened internally
and rely on the command FD by taking on it a reference count.
In case that the command FD was closed and just later the event FD we
may ensure that the device resources as of srcu are still alive as they
are still in use.
Fixing the above by moving the reference count decreasing to the place
where the command FD is really freed instead of doing that when it was
just closed.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
