It is a waste to have an allocation when one is not needed. The value of having INIT_WORK_ONSTACK and DECLARE_COMPLETION_ONSTACK is to be clear at the call site that an async context cares about this stack frame not going out of scope. However, coming full circle, we have zero async users today, and having the completion and work struct in the task are causing a maintenance burden. So let's just rip it out for now with something like the following and circle back to add async support later when it becomes necessary: (only compile tested) diff --git a/drivers/cxl/core/pci.c b/drivers/cxl/core/pci.c index 0dbbe8d39b07..69873cdcc911 100644 --- a/drivers/cxl/core/pci.c +++ b/drivers/cxl/core/pci.c @@ -488,21 +488,14 @@ static struct pci_doe_mb *find_cdat_doe(struct device *uport) CXL_DOE_TABLE_ACCESS_TABLE_TYPE_CDATA) | \ FIELD_PREP(CXL_DOE_TABLE_ACCESS_ENTRY_HANDLE, (entry_handle))) -static void cxl_doe_task_complete(struct pci_doe_task *task) -{ - complete(task->private);

Yeah, my bad for jumping ahead to worry about async when it is not yet needed.
