What is this? There is only one implementation:
static const struct iidc_core_ops ops = {
.alloc_res = ice_cdev_info_alloc_res,
.free_res = ice_cdev_info_free_res,
.request_reset = ice_cdev_info_request_reset,
.update_vport_filter = ice_cdev_info_update_vsi_filter,
.vc_send = ice_cdev_info_vc_send,
};
So export and call the functions directly.
We just had this very same discussion with Broadcom.
I notice there is no module dependency between irdma and the ethernet
driver because the above ops are avoiding it.
This entire idea was already NAK'd once:

So please remove it.
