Sure if you want to do that, that would be great. Usual style tips:
- We only document driver interfaces, so structs/inline functions in
headers and exported symbols in .c files.
- Anything else interesting just leave as normal C comments
- An overview DOC: section that explains a bit how leases work and why
(git blame on the commit that added it should help, otherwise I can
type that up) would also be really great.
I think the right place for this is in the drm-uapi.rst section after
the section about primary nodes:
https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/gpu/drm-kms.html#modeset-base-object-abstraction
