Hm...  Actually it looks like we should just remove both those
calls to kfree() and the ib_destroy_fmr_pool().  Otherwise we'll do
a double free when we get to iser_conn_release().

The call tree looks like this:
iser_connect() => iser_cma_handler() => iser_route_handler() 
	=> iser_create_ib_conn_res()

		We fail here and return failures back down the tree.

iser_connect() => iser_conn_release()

		Double free.

I will send a patch for this tomorrow.

dan carpenter
