Ah, I remember again why I want to also convert over exynos to the common
dma buf release function: Later patches in my prime locking series will
change things in there to avoid a userspace-triggerable oops. If we leave
out exynos it'll break rather badly for dma-buf export.

I need to think a bit more about what stuff looks like atm, but if I
resend those parts I'll include exynos. It's a bit tricky that it still
works, but that way you can fix it up without the introduction of a bisect
failure point.
