Could you elaborate on your concern? I moved this change into a
separate commit so that it is not lost in other changes, but I don't
see how the two definitions would not be functionally equivalent. Would
it help to extend the commit description along the following lines?

   1. Before this series, binfo->feature_dev was initialized to NULL by
      devm_kzalloc() in dfl_fpga_feature_devs_enumerate(). After this
      series, binfo->type is initialized to DFL_ID_MAX in
      dfl_fpga_feature_devs_enumerate().
   2. Before this series, binfo->feature_dev was set to a non-NULL
      pointer in build_info_create_dev(), which in turn was called from
      parse_feature_fiu(). After this series, binfo->type is set to a
      non-DFL_ID_MAX value, as returned by dfh_id_to_type(), in
      parse_feature_fiu().
   3. Before this series, binfo->feature_dev was reset to NULL at the
      end of build_info_commit_dev(). After this series, binfo->type is
      reset to DFL_ID_MAX at the end of build_info_commit_dev().

Thanks,
Peter
