SMC connections might fail to be registered in a link group due to
unable to find a usable link during its creation. As a result,
smc_conn_create() will return a failure and most resources related
to the connection won't be applied or initialized, such as
conn->abort_work or conn->lnk.
If smc_conn_free() is invoked later, it will try to access the
uninitialized resources related to the connection, thus causing
a warning or crash.
This patch tries to fix this by resetting conn->lgr to NULL if an
abnormal exit occurs in smc_lgr_register_conn(), thus avoiding the
access to uninitialized resources in smc_conn_free().
Meanwhile, the new created link group should be terminated if smc
connections can't be registered in it. So smc_lgr_cleanup_early() is
modified to take care of link group only and invoked to terminate
unusable link group by smc_conn_create(). The call to smc_conn_free()
is moved out from smc_lgr_cleanup_early() to smc_conn_abort().

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.
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.
