Hello Mr. Andrey Grodzovsky,
Thanks for the quick review and response.
My documentation string (same for both files) is based on commit id
8ab62eda177bc350f34fea4fcea23603b8184bfd. It seemed that both warnings
might've been introduced by the addition of that device pointer.
Also, the commit message specifically mentions this addition for use with
DRM_DEV_ERROR() to make life easier under a multiple GPU scenario. So, I
used cscope to look for DRM_DEV_ERROR() and then for drm_dev_printk(). I
also checked previous versions of both files and noticed DRM_ERROR() in
drivers/gpu/drm/scheduler/sched_main.c changed to DRM_DEV_ERROR().
Perhaps, I wrongly correlated my cscope/history findings with the commit
message and used absolute wording. I guess that this might be (I usually
avoid absolute wording) useful not only in a single GPU scenario (to print
better standardized messages with dev when available) but also in non-error
printing such as with KERN_NOTICE, KERN_INFO, etc. I'm still not sure if
the added device pointer could be used for something else besides printing.
Please let me know if my understanding is correct and whether I should
change the wording to:
A device pointer - primarily useful for printing standardized messages with
DRM_DEV_ERROR().
