Inline drm_gem_pin() into its only caller drm_gem_map_attach() and update the documentation in the callback's purpose. Do the equivalent for drm_gem_unpin(). Also add stricter error checking on the involved locking. The pin operation in the GEM object functions is a helper for PRIME-exported buffer objects. Having drm_gem_pin() gives the impression of a general-purpose interface, which is not the case. Removing it makes the pin callback a bit harder to misuse. v2: - clarify comment on pin callback (Dmitry) Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Dmitry Osipenko <dmitry.osipenko@collabora.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250526132634.531789-5-tzimmermann@suse.de
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
