I'm still confused then. :)
struct amd_iommu_pi_data is a throwaway structure for I/O with
irq_set_vcpu_affinity(), but we keep it afterwards ...
is it more than a wrapper that allows us to put ir_data into a list,
because we don't want to add list_head directly to ir_data?
Hm... I see you point now. I'll change it to ir_data list.
Thanks,
Suraveee
