If the method fails after calling rdma_explicit_destroy (eg if copy_to_user faults) then it will trigger a kernel oops: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000 PGD 800000000548d067 P4D 800000000548d067 PUD 54a0067 PMD 0 SMP PTI CPU: 0 PID: 359 Comm: ibv_rc_pingpong Not tainted 4.18.0-rc1+ #28 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.7.5-0-ge51488c-20140602_164612-nilsson.home.kraxel.org 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010: (null) Code: Bad RIP value.

One of the side effects of replacing the type is to make the object handle totally unreachable - so no other command could attempt to use it, even though it remains on the uboject list. We can get the same end result by just fully destroying the object inside rdma_explicit_destroy and leaving the caller the residual kref for the uobj with no attached HW object, and no presence in the ubojects list.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
