[PATCH iwl-next v4 0/3] Rework usage of the control PF pointer in struct ice_adapter

Rework usage of the control PF pointer in struct ice_adapter, so that
it is always has a consistent state, since it is global for an adapter.
Utilize RCU for reading the pointer value and atomic operations for
changing it. Zero out the ctrl_pf pointer when the control PF is removed.

v1->v2: Rebase onto the latest dev-queue branch
v2->v3: Cosmetic fixes
v3->v4: Add the rw_semaphore to protect the ctrl_pf

Sergey Temerkhanov (3):
  ice: Convert ctrl_pf pointer in struct ice_adapter to RCU
  ice: Zero out the PTP control PF pointer at ice_adapter cleanup
  ice: Cache struct ice_hw pointer for split register reads
