Subject: [PATCH v2 09/18] IB/umad: remove port_table[]
We no longer need this data structure, as it was used to associate
an inode back to a struct ib_umad_port during ->open().
But now that we're embedding a struct cdev in struct ib_umad_port,
we can use the container_of() macro to go from the inode back to
the device instead.
