I still see wrong usage of auxiliary driver model, especially for RDMA device. That model mimics general driver model, where you should separate between device creation and configuration. I would expect that your bnxt_en create pre-configured devices with right amount of MSI-X, limits, capabilities e.t.c and RDMA driver will simply bind to it. It means that calls like bnxt_re_request_msix() should go too. All PCI-related logic needs to be in netdev. In addition, I saw IS_ERR_OR_NULL(..) and "if(dev)" checks in various uninit functions and it can be one of two: wrong unwind flow or wrong use of driver model. In right implementation, your driver will be called only on valid device and uninit won't be called for not-initialized device. Also I spotted .ulp_async_notifier, which is not used and bnxt_re_sriov_config() is prune to races due to separation between driver bind and device creation. You should configure SR-IOV in device creation stage.
