Eric Farman ff598081e5 vfio/mdev: Move the compat_class initialization to module init
The pointer to mdev_bus_compat_class is statically defined at the top
of mdev_core, and was originally (commit 7b96953bc6 ("vfio: Mediated
device Core driver") serialized by the parent_list_lock. The blamed
commit removed this mutex, leaving the pointer initialization
unserialized. As a result, the creation of multiple MDEVs in parallel
(such as during boot) can encounter errors during the creation of the
sysfs entries, such as:

Move the initialization of the mdev_bus_compat_class pointer to the
init path, to match the cleanup in module exit. This way the code
in mdev_register_parent() can simply link the new parent to it,
rather than determining whether initialization is required first.
