    That looks really wrong to me. This is the class driver, so why are
    you handling the interrupts of the devices in it? You are clearly
    making assumption that the interrupt will always be used only for
    command completion, but that may not be the case. No assumptions.

    Just define completion callbacks, and let the drivers handle the
    actual interrupts.

    To be honest, creating an extra logical device for the IPC hosts, and
    the entire class, all feel unnecessarily complex to me.

    The goal of this patch should be possible to achieve in a much simpler
    and flexible way. IMO this patch needs to be redesigned.


    Thanks,
