Subject: IB/ipoib: Fix CONFIG_INFINIBAND_IPOIB_CM

From: Jason Gunthorpe <[email protected]>

commit efc1eedbf63a194b3b576fc25776f3f1fa55a4d4 upstream.

If the above is turned off then ipoib_cm_dev_init unconditionally returns ENOSYS, and the newly added error handling in 0b3957 prevents ipoib from coming up at all:

kernel: mlx4_0: ipoib_transport_dev_init failed
kernel: mlx4_0: failed to initialize port 1 (ret = -12)
