    Eek, thanks for finding this.

    Totally fine, I'm in no specific rush. I've just been mostly trying to
    get as many conversions done as possible to get them in front of the
    right people for review.

    > Sorry for the noise,

    What I did in many other non-trivial conversions was just add an
    explicit pointer back, since that's operationally identical to what
    struct timer_list was storing in its .data field.

    i.e.

    add:

    struct cardstate *cs;

    to struct bas_cardstate, and then use this on timer entry:

    struct bas_cardstate *ucs = from_timer(ucs, t, $timer...);
    struct cardstate *cs = ucs->cs;

    and this at init:

    spin_lock_init(&ucs->lock);
    + ucs->cs = cs;
    - setup_timer(&ucs->timer_ctrl, req_timeout, (unsigned long) cs);
    - setup_timer(&ucs->timer_atrdy, atrdy_timeout, (unsigned long) cs);
    - setup_timer(&ucs->timer_cmd_in, cmd_in_timeout, (unsigned long) cs);
    - setup_timer(&ucs->timer_int_in, int_in_resubmit, (unsigned long) cs);
    + timer_setup(&ucs->timer_ctrl, req_timeout, 0);
    + timer_setup(&ucs->timer_atrdy, atrdy_timeout, 0);
    + timer_setup(&ucs->timer_cmd_in, cmd_in_timeout, 0);
    + timer_setup(&ucs->timer_int_in, int_in_resubmit, 0);

    which will avoid the urb entirely.

    Do you want me to send an alternative patch?
