[PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 2/4] drivers/gpu/drm: Dynamically allocate drm_unplug_srcu

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Tue Apr 02 2019 - 10:30:34 EST


Having DEFINE_SRCU() or DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU() in a loadable module
requires that the size of the reserved region be increased, which is not
something we really want to be doing. This commit therefore removes
the DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU() from drivers/gpu/drm/drm_drv.c in favor of
defining drm_unplug_srcu as a simple srcu_struct, initializing it in
drm_core_init(), and cleaning it up in drm_core_exit().

In this particular case, drm_unplug_srcu is statically allocated and thus
guaranteed to be initially zero. Unfortunately, cleanup_srcu_struct()
cannot rely on this in the general case (which includes dynamically
allocated srcu_struct structures), and therefore cannot tell whether it
is being called on something that has been passed to init_srcu_struct().
Thus the code added to drm_core_init() is a bit non-standard.
