H A D | drm_crtc.c | b62584e3 Tue Dec 11 09:51:35 CST 2012 Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> 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.
