[PATCH 0/3] Allow ib_clients to nullify .add but still get .remove events reliably

Some ULPs are just interested in device removal notification with no specific
association because they work over RDMA_CM so no need for detecting appearance
of the devices. That wasn't the because the corresponding ib_client_data
was never added to the device clients list when the ib_client registers,
Patch 1 fixes it. Patches 2-3 just removes the empty .add callout nvme(t)-rdma set.

Sagi Grimberg (3):
  RDMA/device: Fix device removal notification when ib_clients set .add
    callout to NULL
  nvme-rdma: remove redundant empty device add callout
  nvmet-rdma: remove redundant empty device add callout
