Hello, This patchset adds reference counting for an exporter module to DMABUF framework. Moreover, it adds setup of an owner field for exporters in DRM subsystem.
v1: Original v2: - split patch into DMABUF and DRM part - allow owner to be NULL
Regards, Tomasz Stanislawski
Tomasz Stanislawski (2): dma-buf: add reference counting for exporter module drm: set owner field to for all DMABUF exporters

This patch adds reference counting on a module that exported dma-buf and implements its operations. This prevents the module from being unloaded while DMABUF file is in use.

Why force all of the modules to be changed "by hand", and not just do this automatically by changing the register function to include the THIS_MODULE macro in it? Much like the pci_register_driver() function is implemented in include/linux/pci.h?
That makes it impossible for driver authors to get it wrong, which is always a good sign of a correct api.

Thank you for the hint.
The owner field belongs to dma_buf_ops structure that is often a 'const' entity. Therefore owner field would have to be moved to 'struct dma_buf' to avoid 'deconstification' issues.

This patch sets owner field in DMABUF operations for all DMABUF exporters in DRM subsystem. This prevents an exporting module from being unloaded while exported DMABUF descriptor is in use.
