OK, the smaller patch below seems to fix things to, so that's what
I'll merge.  I think the real issue was that I left the code as

        ret = kobject_init_and_add(&cm_dev->dev_obj, &cm_dev_obj_type,
                                   &cm_class.subsys.kobj, "%s", device->name);

without doing kobject_get() on subsys.kobj, which meant on unload, we
did an extra put of that subsys.kobj, which left the infiniband_cm
class in a messed-up state.  But there's no reason to do an extra get
of the parents (kobject_init_and_add() already gets the parent once
for us), so we can just simplify everything as below:
