[PATCH v2 17/19] fbcon: Maintain a private array of fb_info

From: Daniel Vetter
Date: Tue Feb 08 2022 - 17:39:28 EST


Accessing the one in fbmem.c without taking the right locks is a bad
idea. Instead maintain our own private copy, which is fully protected
by console_lock() (like everything else in fbcon.c). That copy is
serialized through fbcon_fb_registered/unregistered() calls.

Also this means we do not need to hold a full fb_info reference, which
is nice because doing so would mean a refcount loop between the
console and the fb_info. But it's also not nice since it means
console_lock() must be held absolutely everywhere. Well strictly
speaking we could still try to do some refcounting games again by
calling get_fb_info before we drop the console_lock. But things will
get tricky.
