In the previous commit you introduced is_started to the ops struct as
function pointer, and you probably intend to call it here instead of
just checking whether it might be NULL.

As far as I remember this was also the reason for previously mentioning
that it was faulty and required a v2 in:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/bdc67afc-3736-5497-c43f-5165c55e0354@somainline.org/

Thanks!
