    IB/uverbs: Convert *cdev to cdev in struct ib_uverbs_device · 055422dd
    Alexander Chiang authored
    Instead of storing a pointer to a cdev, embed the entire struct cdev.
    
    This change allows us to use the container_of() macro in
    ib_uverbs_open() in a future patch.
    
    This change increases the size of struct ib_uverbs_device to 168 bytes
    across 3 cachelines from 80 bytes in 2 cachelines.  However, we
    rearrange the members so that everything fits into the first cacheline
    except for the struct cdev. Finally, we don't touch the cdev in any
    fastpaths, so this change shouldn't negatively affect performance.
