Summary
RDMA/core: always drop device refcount in ib_del_sub_device_and_put()
Details

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

RDMA/core: always drop device refcount in ibdelsubdeviceand_put()

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