DPU was using one thread per display to dispatch async
commits and vblank requests. Since clean up already happened
in msm to use the common thread for all the display commits,
display threads are only used to cater vblank requests. Single
thread is sufficient to do the job without any performance hits.

I realize this is moving existing code, but is there a race here? You
can't have
work enqueued in between the flush and stop?
I looked further into this comment. Ideally, we call into msm_unbind only when the device is released and we release the device only on the last close of
the drm device. So the userspace doesn't have any device handle to make
ioctl calls, which could queue jobs to this queue. Since we are making sure
to flush out the last job already on the queue, we can safely call the
kthread_stop here.

Thanks and Regards,
Jeykumar S.


You might also want to use kthread_destroy_worker to do this work (in a
follow-up patch including the event threads too).
