In order to better track where in the kernel the dma-buf code is used, put the symbols in the namespace DMA_BUF and modify all users of the symbols to properly import the namespace to not break the build at the same time.
Now the output of modinfo shows the use of these symbols, making it easier to watch for users over time:
$ modinfo drivers/misc/fastrpc.ko | grep import import_ns: DMA_BUF

v2: added lots of acks added 2 more drivers that needed the change, as found by Arnd
Ping? Any ideas on what needs to happen to get this into the tree?
Or can I take it through my char-misc tree? I seem to have a bunch of acks on it by the respective maintainers...
thanks,
