From 5f72db59160c697d1dec3f6074dba72bd834c695 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Wilson Date: Thu, 2 Nov 2017 22:03:34 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] dma-buf/fence: Sparse wants __rcu on the object itself MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit In order to silence sparse in dma_fence_get_rcu_safe(), we need to mark the incoming fence object as being RCU protected and not the pointer to the object.
