In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to
all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer()

Hi Kees, you need to add

gb_loopback_async_operation_get(op_async); when dropping the gb_loopback_operation_find() call here.

Actually:

spin_lock_irqsave(&gb_dev.lock, flags);
gb_loopback_async_operation_get(op_async);
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&gb_dev.lock, flags);
