Yes, hwc->gdma_dev is assigned shortly after it's allocated - see the code below. So
it's valid.
But hwc->gdma_dev->driver_data is hwc, not "mana_context *ac". There are two
gdma_dev in gdma_context: hwc & mana.
You can get ac from: hwc->gdma_dev->gdma_context->mana.driver_data
Or, to avoid too many pointer deference, I suggest to put the vf_unload_timeout
into gdma_context.
int mana_hwc_create_channel(struct gdma_context *gc)
{
hwc = kzalloc(sizeof(*hwc), GFP_KERNEL);
...
gd->gdma_context = gc;
gd->driver_data = hwc;
hwc->gdma_dev = gd;
hwc->dev = gc->dev;
Also, mana_gd_send_request/mana_hwc_send_request() is used in many places,
not just unloading.
Should you use timeout value 5 sec, and the vf_unload_timeout flag in unloading
path only, and avoid touching other code paths? Please check with hostnet team for
suggestions.
If we decide to let the vf_unload_timeout flag affect all code paths, not just
unloading, then it should be renamed to hwc_timeout, and submit the second patch
separately.
If just use it for unloading, since mana_gd_deregister_device() is used by PF too,
name it like: unload_hwc_timeout.
