Subject: drm: optimize drm_framebuffer_remove
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b62584e366ebcb3adffefad373a5abc4c4b677ca;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

drm: optimize drm_framebuffer_remove

Now that all framebuffer usage is properly refcounted, we are no
longer required to hold the modeset locks while dropping the last
reference. Hence implemented a fastpath which avoids the potential
stalls associated with grabbing mode_config.lock for the case where
there's no other reference around.

Explain in a big comment why it is safe. Also update kerneldocs with
the new locking rules around drm_framebuffer_remove.
