Currently the fcoe_ctlr associated with an interface is allocated as a member of struct fcoe_interface. This causes problems when attempting to use the new fcoe_sysfs APIs which allow us to allocate the fcoe_interface as private data to the 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 contains the fcoe_ctlr and its private data is the fcoe_interface. This patch only allocates the fcoe_interface with the fcoe_ctlr, the fcoe_ctlr_device will be added in a later patch, which will complete the below diagram- +------------------+ | fcoe_ctlr_device | +------------------+ | fcoe_ctlr | +------------------+ | fcoe_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).
