If using the following changes, how can we assign 'prod', we need to use
container_of to get struct kvm_kernel_irqfd and then refer to 'prod', but
we cannot do this in irq_bypass_register_consumer(), right? It is a
common API. But we can only get the associated producer info inside
bypass manager, right?

Thanks,
Feng

struct kvm_kernel_irqfd {

        ......

        struct irq_bypass_consumer cons;
        struct irq_bypass_producer *prod;
};
