The patch order is incorrect. Here you access the ctrl_pf member,
which is added later in the subsequent patch.

But more importantly, it looks unsafe to access another ice_pf this
way. The administrator may unbind a PF from the driver in any order.
Can the shared objects be moved into struct ice_adapter itself so that
cross-ice_pf access becomes unnecessary?
