IFCVF held refcnt of its PCI parent, so it looks to > me it's safe to free PCI resources in vDPA free callback? The refcnt doesn't prevent the driver core from re-binding the pci_device to another driver. Then the refcount put would do a pci_disable_device() after another driver has started For this reason all touches to a struct pci_device must stop before remove returns.
