[PATCH 13/13] drm/todo: Update the debugfs clean up task

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The structs drm_debugfs_connector_entry, drm_debugfs_encoder_entry, and
drm_debugfs_crtc_entry introduced a debugfs infrastruture that made it
possible to remove late-register debugfs. So, update the debugfs clean
up task to include the advances for the kms objects and point out
possible improvements to be done.
