From 29d08b3efddca628b0360411ab2b85f7b1723f48 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Airlie Date: Mon, 27 Sep 2010 16:17:17 +1000 Subject: drm/gem: handlecount isn't really a kref so don't make it one. There were lots of places being inconsistent since handle count looked like a kref but it really wasn't. Fix this my just making handle count an atomic on the object, and have it increase the normal object kref. Now i915/radeon/nouveau drivers can drop the normal reference on userspace object creation, and have the handle hold it. This patch fixes a memory leak or corruption on unload, because the driver had no way of knowing if a handle had been actually added for this object, and the fbcon object needed to know this to clean itself up properly.
