ib_unregister_device_queued() can only be used by drivers using the new
dealloc_device callback flow, and it has a safety WARN_ON to ensure
drivers are using it properly.

However, if unregister and register are raced there is a special
destruction path that maintains the uniform error h andling semantic of
'caller does ib_dealloc_device() on failure'. This requires disabling the
dealloc_device callback which triggers the WARN_ON.

Instead of using NULL to disable the callback use a special function
pointer so the WARN_ON does not trigger.

As outlined by Hillf, seems like it is OK.
