Since nldev_deldev() (introduced by commit 060c642b2ab8 ("RDMA/nldev: Add
support to add/delete a sub IB device through netlink") grabs a reference
using ib_device_get_by_index() before calling ib_del_sub_device_and_put(),
we need to drop that reference before returning -EOPNOTSUPP error.

Fix missing comparison operator for RDMA_NETWORK_ROCE_V1 in the
conditional statement. The constant was used directly instead of
being compared with net_type, causing the condition to always
evaluate to true.

If the CM ID is destroyed while the CM event for multicast creating is
still queued the cancel_work_sync() will prevent the work from running
which also prevents destroying the ah_attr. This leaks a refcount and
triggers a WARN:

   GID entry ref leak for dev syz1 index 2 ref=573

Destroy the ah_attr after canceling the work, it is safe to call this
twice.

<title>RDMA/core: Check for the presence of LS_NLA_TYPE_DGID correctly</title>

<id>a7b8e876e0ef0232b8076972c57ce9a7286b47ca</id>
<content type='text'>
The netlink response for RDMA_NL_LS_OP_IP_RESOLVE should always have a
LS_NLA_TYPE_DGID attribute, it is invalid if it does not.

Use the nl parsing logic properly and call nla_parse_deprecated() to fill
the nlattrs array and then directly index that array to get the data for
the DGID. Just fail if it is NULL.

Remove the for loop searching for the nla, and squash the validation and
parsing into one function.

Fixes an uninitialized read from the stack triggered by userspace if it
does not provide the DGID to a kernel initiated RDMA_NL_LS_OP_IP_RESOLVE
query.

<content type='text'>
The current implementation calls cond_resched() for every SG entry
in __ib_umem_release(), which can increase needless overhead.

This patch introduces RESCHED_LOOP_CNT_THRESHOLD (0x1000) to limit
how often cond_resched() is called. The function now yields the CPU
once every 4096 iterations, and yield at the very first iteration
for lots of small umem case, to reduce scheduling overhead.

<title>RDMA/core: Prevent soft lockup during large user memory region cleanup</title>

When a process exits with numerous large, pinned memory regions consisting
of 4KB pages, the cleanup of the memory region through __ib_umem_release()
may cause soft lockups. This is because unpin_user_page_range_dirty_lock()
is called in a tight loop for unpin and releasing page without yielding the
CPU.

impact.

<title>RDMA/core: WQ_PERCPU added to alloc_workqueue users</title>

<id>e60c5583b661da65b09bfd6ae91126607397490e</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.

alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.

This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.

This change adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request
alloc_workqueue() to be per-cpu when WQ_UNBOUND has not been specified.

With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.

Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.
