Actually " drm_mm_takedown" below will give you the warning if some BO is still in MM That means below part is totally useless: >> - spin_lock(&mgr->lock); >> - if (!drm_mm_clean(&mgr->mm)) { >> - spin_unlock(&mgr->lock); >> - return -EBUSY; >> - } >> - And the worse thing is this "return -EBUSY" would lead to memory leak because it blocks following kfree() on mgr...

Ah, wait a second. That is the address space manager here! Mhm, returning -EBUSY is probably not a good idea, but we should at least print some warning.
