Sounds good to me.

I think there's a bit of contradiction here, if the ownership passes to the
list then the caller shouldn't touch it anymore. How about stating it as
follows ?
* The caller retains its reference to the fragment when adding it to a
* display list, but is not allowed to add new entries to the fragment.
* The reference must be explicitly released by a call to
* vsp1_dl_fragment_put() when the fragment isn't needed anymore.
