Avoid that closing /dev/infiniband/umad<n> or /dev/infiniband/issm<n>
triggers a use-after-free. __fput() in fs/file_table.c invokes
f_op->release() before it invokes cdev_put(). Make sure that the
ib_umad_device structure is freed by the cdev_put() call instead of
f_op->release(). This avoids that changing the port mode from IB into
Ethernet and back to IB followed by restarting opensmd triggers the
following kernel oops:

general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810cc65c>]  [<ffffffff810cc65c>] module_put+0x2c/0x170
