RDMA/ucm: Mark UCM interface as BROKEN
In commit 357d23c811a7 ("Remove the obsolete libibcm library") in rdma-core [1], we removed obsolete library which used the /dev/infiniband/ucmX interface. Following multiple syzkaller reports about non-sanitized user input in the UCMA module, the short audit reveals the same issues in UCM module too. It is better to disable this interface in the kernel, before syzkaller team invests time and energy to harden this unused interface.
