[PATCH v3 0/7] vfio-ccw parent rework

[Eric Farman]

Hi Alex,

Here's the (last?) update to the vfio-ccw lifecycle changes that I've sent
recently, and were previously discussed at various points [1][2].

Patches 1-5 rework the behavior of the vfio-ccw driver's private struct.
In summary, the mdev pieces are split out of vfio_ccw_private and into a
new vfio_ccw_parent struct that will continue to follow today's lifecycle.
The remainder (bulk) of the private struct moves to follow the mdev
probe/remove pair. There's opportunity for further separation of the
things in the private struct, which would simplify some of the vfio-ccw
code, but it got too hairy as I started that. Once vfio-ccw is no longer
considered unique, those cleanups can happen at our leisure. 

Patch 6 removes the trickery where vfio-ccw uses vfio_init_device instead of
vfio_alloc_device, and thus removes vfio_init_device from the outside world.

Patch 7 removes vfio_free_device from vfio-ccw and the other drivers (hello,
CC list!), letting it be handled by vfio_device_release directly.

I believe this covers everything in this space; let me know if not!

Thanks,
Eric
