The cu_mask is originally in q->properties structure. I didn't change that.
What I want to do is keeping the cu_mask memory allocation and deallocation just in kfd_ioctl_set_cu_mask.
instead of everywhere.

Yes, it' better to free queue related resource in one function.
But we allocate it in kfd_ioctl_set_cu_mask and free it in pqm_set_cu_mask, uninit_queue and so on.
It seems strange and error-prone. Unless we allocate it in create queue.  As you said, it is temporary.
It's not worth keeping it until queue is destroyed. Thanks.
