A typo.

Thanks, nice catch!

Adrien submitted a fix [1] for the similar issue. Adding device to the memory event
callback list is moved to mlx5_pci_probe() as it should be done once. So, how about
moving the rest (mlx5_mr_btree_init()) to mlx5_pci_probe() as well? I mean, instead
of adding this check, you can move the btree_init() above the line where Adrien moved
LIST_INSERT_HEAD() to. You'll need to rebase on Adrien's patch and add a comment to
Shahaf there's dependency.
