Currently the fcoe_ctlr associated with an interface is allocated as a member of struct bnx2fc_interface. This causes problems when when later patches attempt to use the new fcoe_sysfs APIs which allow us to allocate the bnx2fc_interface as private data to a fcoe_ctlr_device instance. The problem is that libfcoe wants to be able use pointer math to find a fcoe_ctlr's fcoe_ctlr_device as well as finding a fcoe_ctlr_device's assocated fcoe_ctlr. To do this we need to allocate the fcoe_ctlr_device, with private data for the LLD. The private data will contain the fcoe_ctlr and its private data will be the bnx2fc_interface. +-------------------+ | fcoe_ctlr_device | +-------------------+ | fcoe_ctlr | +-------------------+ | bnx2fc_interface | +-------------------+ This prep work will allow us to go from a fcoe_ctlr_device instance to its fcoe_ctlr as well as from a fcoe_ctlr to its fcoe_ctlr_device once the fcoe_sysfs API is in use (later patches in this series).
