Thank you for your quick response.

I think it is better to clear the vmr. Actually the mlx5 driver allocates
the vmr using calloc().

In addition, rxe_reg_mr() (not rxe_reg_dmabuf_mr()) is used the malloc
and not clear the vmr. I think It has to be fixed too. Should I make
another patch to fix this problem?

Thanks a lot.
