Chris Wilson f30c92576a drm: Provide a driver hook for drm_dev_release()
Some state is coupled into the device lifetime outside of the
load/unload timeframe and requires teardown during final unreference
from drm_dev_release(). For example, dmabufs hold both a device and
module reference and may live longer than expected (i.e. the current
pattern of the driver tearing down its state and then releasing a
reference to the drm device) and yet touch driver private state when
destroyed.

v2: Export drm_dev_fini() and move the responsibility for finalizing the
drm_device and freeing it to the release callback. (If no callback is
provided, the core will call drm_dev_fini() and kfree(dev) as before.)
v3: Remember to add drm_dev_fini() to drm_drv.h
v4: Tidy language for kerneldoc
v5: Cross reference from drm_dev_init() to note that driver->release()
allows for arbitrary embedding.
v6: Refer to driver data rather than driver state, as state is now
becoming associated with the struct drm_atomic_state and friends.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
