However I don't see any explicit synchronization done for cp->initialized. I've managed to figure out how is that supposed to be safe for the cp_free() (which is probably our main concern) in vfio_ccw_sch_io_todo(), but if fail when it comes to the one in vfio_ccw_mdev_notifier(). Can you explain us how does the synchronization work? Regards, Halil
