Have the PowerNV EEH backend allocate the eeh_dev if needed rather than using
the one attached to the pci_dn.
So that pci_dn attached one is leaked then?
Sorta, the eeh_dev attached to the pci_dn is supposed to have the same
lifetime as the pci_dn it's attached to. Whatever frees the pci_dn
should also be freeing the eeh_dev, but I'm pretty sure the only
situation where that actually happens is when removing the pci_dn for
VFs.

Oh, that's lovely. add_sriov_vf_pdns() calls eeh_dev_init() to allocate
@edev but remove_sriov_vf_pdns() does kfree(edev) by itself.

It's bad.
No sh*t :)

This gets us most of the way towards decoupling
pci_dn from the PowerNV EEH code.

We should probably be free()ing the eeh_dev somewhere. The pci_dev release
function is the right place for it.

yeah lol
"unprofessional" is the word for this ;)

I am pretty sure we do not have to print anything if alloc failed
quoted
as alloc prints an error anyway. Thanks,
It does? Neat.
Well, it is this:

===
These generic allocation functions all emit a stack dump on failure when
used
without __GFP_NOWARN so there is no use in emitting an additional failure
message when NULL is returned.

More than a printk. A small detail though.
