The ports kobject isn't being released during error flow in device
registration.  This patch refactors the ports kobject cleanup into a
single function called from both the error flow in device registration
and from the unregistration function.

A couple of attributes aren't being deleted (iw_stats_group, and
ib_class_attributes).  While this may be handled implicitly by the
destruction of their kobjects, it seems better to handle all the
attributes the same way.

When encountering an error during the add_port function, adding a port
to sysfs, the port kobject is freed without being deleted from sysfs.

Instead of freeing it directly, the patch uses kobject_put to release
the kobject and delete it.

The ib_core module will call kobject_get on the parent object of each
kobject it creates.  This is redundant since kobject_add does that
anyway.

As a side effect, this patch should fix leaking the ports kobject and
the device kobject during unregister flow, since the previous code
didn't seem to take into account the kobject_get calls on behalf of
the child kobjects.

Calling dev_set_name with a single paramter causes it to be handled as a
format string.  Many callers are passing potentially dynamic string
content, so use "%s" in those cases to avoid any potential accidents,
including wrappers like device_create*() and bdi_register().

Commit e9319b0cb00d ("IB/core: Fix SDR rates in sysfs") changed our
sysfs rate attribute to return EINVAL to userspace if the underlying
device driver returns an invalid rate.  Apparently some drivers do this
when the link is down and some userspace pukes if it gets an error when
reading this attribute, so avoid a regression by not return an error to
match the old code.

The kernel IB stack uses one enumeration for IB speed, which wasn't
explicitly specified in the verbs header file.  Add that enum, and use
it all over the code.

The IB speed/width notation is also used by iWARP and IBoE HW drivers,
which use the convention of rate = speed * width to advertise their
port link rate.
