From: Guangming Cao <redacted> In this patch(https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/310349), it add a new IOCTL to support dma-buf user to set debug name. But it also added a limitation of this IOCTL, it needs the attachments of dmabuf should be empty, otherwise it will fail. For the original series, the idea was that allowing name change mid-use could confuse the users about the dma-buf. However, the rest of the series also makes sure each dma-buf have a unique inode(https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/310387/), and any accounting should probably use that, without relying on the name as much. So, removing this restriction will let dma-buf userspace users to use it more comfortably and without any side effect. Signed-off-by: Guangming Cao <redacted>
We could now cleanup the return value from dma_buf_set_name() into a void since that function can't fail any more as far as I can see. But that isn't mandatory I think, patch is Reviewed-by: Christian König [off-list ref] Regards, Christian.
