RDMA/cm: Change return value from find_gid_port() Problem reported by Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>: The patch 3c86aa70bf67: "RDMA/cm: Add RDMA CM support for IBoE devices" from Oct 13, 2010, leads to the following warning: net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/svc_rdma_transport.c:722 svc_rdma_create() error: passing non neg 1 to ERR_PTR This bug would result in a NULL dereference. svc_rdma_create() is supposed to return ERR_PTRs or valid pointers, but instead it returns ERR_PTRs, valid pointers and 1. The call tree is: svc_rdma_create() => rdma_bind_addr() => cma_acquire_dev() => find_gid_port() rdma_bind_addr() should return a valid errno. Fix this by having find_gid_port() also return a valid errno. If we can't find the specified GID on a given port, return -EADDRNOTAVAIL, rather than -EAGAIN, to better indicate the error. We also drop using the special return value of '1' and instead pass through the error returned by the underlying verbs call. On such errors, rather than aborting the search, we simply continue to check the next device/port.
