In the comment above I would say "If concurrency is not prevented by
other means, the HFI enable/disable routines must be called under
hfi_instance_lock." and I would retain the comments below (they don't
hurt IMO).

I would call this hfi_enable_instance().

Why is this variable needed ro even useful?  prt can be passed
directly to hfi_set_hw_table().

And I'd call this hfi_disable_instance().

So AFAICS, one instance can be enabled multiple times because of this.
  I guess that's OK?  In any case, it would be kind of nice to leave a
note regarding it somewhere here.

Is it possible for any clients to be there before the notifier is
registered?  If not, it would be good to add a comment about it.
