I referred to these lines in the mlx5v_probe():
  1986         err = mlx5_vdpa_alloc_resources(&ndev->mvdev);
  1987         if (err)
  1988                 goto err_mtu;
  1989
  1990         err = alloc_resources(ndev);
  1991         if (err)
  1992                 goto err_res;
  1993
  1994         err = vdpa_register_device(&mvdev->vdev);

So mlx5v_remove() is better to be symmetrical.

Thanks
