The doc is right, it's for the exporter function for importers. For
non-dynamic importers dma-buf.c code itself does ensure the pinning
happens. So non-dynamic importers really have no business calling
pin/unpin, because they always get a mapping that's put into system memory
and pinned there.

Ofc for driver specific stuff with direct interfaces you can do whatever
you feel like, but probably good to match these semantics.

But looking at the patch, I think this is more about the locking, not the
pin/unpin stuff. Locking rules definitely depend upon what the exporter
requires, and again dma-buf.c should do all the impendence mismatch that's
needed.

So I think we're all good with the doc, but please double-check.
