Cornelia, I think you were thinking something like this? Patch one does the refactoring to use ccw_io_region as a pointer rather than a struct embedded in vfio_ccw_private, while patch two is almost identical to the initial patch that I sent. Obviously I had to remove references to the vfio_ccw_private struct since ccw_io_region is a pointer, but the concept is the same.
