Subject: [Patch for-rc v2] RDMA/siw: Fix failure handling during device creation

A failing call to ib_device_set_netdev() during device creation
caused system crash due to xa_destroy of uninitialized xarray
hit by device deallocation. Fixed by moving xarray initialization
before potential device deallocation.

Fixes: bdcf26bf9b3a (rdma/siw: network and RDMA core interface)
Reported-by: syzbot+2e80962bedd9559fe0b3@...kaller.appspotmail.com
Signed-off-by: Bernard Metzler <bmt@...ich.ibm.com>

v1 -> v2:
- Fix here only potential system crash during failing device
  creation, but not missing correct error propagation.
