The previous code didn't call restrack_del. restrack_del undoes the restrack_set_name stuff, not just add - so it does not leave things back the way it found themThe previous code didn't call to restrack_add and this is why it didn't call to restrack_del later. In old and new code, we are still calling to acquire and release dev (cma_acquire_dev_by_src_ip/cma_release_dev) and this is where the CM_ID is actually attached.Which is my point, you can't call restrack_del anyplace except the final destroy. It cannot be used for error unwinding in these kinds of functions
ok, let's remove the controversial hunks.
