In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

IB/hfi1: Fix AIP early init panic

An early failure in hfi1_ipoib_setup_rn() can lead to the following panic:

  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000000001b0

The panic happens in hfi1_ipoib_txreq_deinit() because there is a NULL
deref when hfi1_ipoib_netdev_dtor() is called in this error case.

hfi1_ipoib_txreq_init() and hfi1_ipoib_rxq_init() are self unwinding so
fix by adjusting the error paths accordingly.

Other changes:
- hfi1_ipoib_free_rdma_netdev() is deleted including the free_netdev()
  since the netdev core code deletes calls free_netdev()
- The switch to the accelerated entrances is moved to the success path.
