No element named "client" exists within "struct ipa_endpoint".
It might be a heritage forgotten to be removed. Delete it now.

Alex Elder f30dcb7dcb net: ipa: kill ipa_endpoint_stop()
The previous commit made ipa_endpoint_stop() be a trivial wrapper
around gsi_channel_stop().  Since it no longer does anything
special, just open-code it in the three places it's used.

Alex Elder 84f9bd12d4 soc: qcom: ipa: IPA endpoints
This patch includes the code implementing an IPA endpoint.  This is
the primary abstraction implemented by the IPA.  An endpoint is one
end of a network connection between two entities physically
connected to the IPA.  Specifically, the AP and the modem implement
endpoints, and an (AP endpoint, modem endpoint) pair implements the
transfer of network data in one direction between the AP and modem.

Endpoints are built on top of GSI channels, but IPA endpoints
represent the higher-level functionality that the IPA provides.
Data can be sent through a GSI channel, but it is the IPA endpoint
that represents what is on the "other end" to receive that data.
Other functionality, including aggregation, checksum offload and
(at some future date) IP routing and filtering are all associated
with the IPA endpoint.
