From b62584e366ebcb3adffefad373a5abc4c4b677ca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Vetter Date: Tue, 11 Dec 2012 16:51:35 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] 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. Reviewed-by: Rob Clark Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter --- Reading git-format-patch failed
