[PATCH] IB/mlx5: avoid binding a new mpi unit to the same devices repeatedly

From: Qing Huang
Date: Fri Jul 13 2018 - 19:51:03 EST


When a CX5 device is configured in dual-port RoCE mode, after creating
many VFs against port 1, creating the same number of VFs against port 2
will flood kernel/syslog with something like
"mlx5_*:mlx5_ib_bind_slave_port:4266:(pid 5269): port 2 already
affiliated."

So basically, when traversing mlx5_ib_dev_list, mlx5_ib_add_slave_port()
shouldn't repeatedly attempt to bind the new mpi data unit to every device
on the list until it finds an unbound device.
