The submit helpers and the completion look the iaa_wq up again through
the WQ's private pointer, after the entry point has already found it to
take its reference. The submit helpers are also passed the WQ
separately, so a request has no single record of which WQ it holds its
reference on.
Store the iaa_wq in the request context when the reference is taken, and
use it everywhere after that. This makes the association of a
IAA workqueue and the request clear.

iaa_compress(), iaa_compress_verify() and iaa_decompress() take the WQ
to submit to as a parameter, and also find the iaa_wq in the request
context. Nothing ties the two together.
Drop the parameter and use the request's iaa_wq->wq.

rebalance_wq_table() gives CPU n all the WQs of IAA device
n / cpus_per_iaa. The flat index ignores package boundaries, so a CPU
can be paired with a device on another package, and each CPU sends all
its requests to one device while the other devices of its package stay
idle. The table is also rebuilt in place, so a request issued during a
probe or remove can read a NULL WQ and fail with -ENODEV.
Replace it with one table per package, holding the WQs of every IAA
device on that package, and have each CPU round-robin over its package's
table. Rebalance builds the whole set of tables and publishes it with
rcu_replace_pointer(). The submit paths look the WQ up, and take their
reference on it, inside an RCU read-side section.
- A package without IAA devices gets a copy of another package's table,
so the lookup needs no fallback.
- Every table has room for all the WQs, a few pointers more than it
needs, so they can be sized without counting per package.
- If a rebalance fails, the current tables are kept. On removal they
are cleared instead, because they still hold the removed WQ. Removal
then waits for a grace period before returning, because the idxd_wq
can be freed after that.

Weird that I haven't received any notification about these comments.
Anyway, as I moved some code around, sashiko considers it a "new" issue,
but from a quick look, it's a pre-existing one. Doesn't seem too hard to
fix, will include the fix on v2.
Cheers,

Decompressions round-robin over the package's WQs like compressions
do. Decompressions are latency-sensitive, and do better staying on a
warm engine.
Have each CPU pick one WQ of its package's table the first time it
decompresses, spread over the table by a per-table counter, and stay on
it.
The CPU caches the index, not the WQ, so it cannot outlive the table it
came from; rebalance makes every CPU pick again.
