Assuming we don't have any bugs anywhere, and the importer can indeed get rid of all its mapping, always. But for completeness probably need this one, just to keep it noted. -Daniel > > - One unfortunate thing with drm_dev_unplug is that the driver core is > very opinionated and doesn't tell you whether it's a hotunplug or a > driver unload.
