In this patch(https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpatchwork.freedesktop.org%2Fpatch%2F310349&data=04%7C01%7Cchristian.koenig%40amd.com%7C6652f423b96547b8321308d998772121%7C3dd8961fe4884e608e11a82d994e183d%7C0%7C0%7C637708459727236977%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=4EFg60sCxQzNuMKB0VjhbpvoeGlcAbofErMtcjPtIfw%3D&reserved=0),
it add a new IOCTL to support dma-buf user to set debug name.
But it also added a limitation of this IOCTL, it needs the
attachments of dmabuf should be empty, otherwise it will fail.
For the original series, the idea was that allowing name change
mid-use could confuse the users about the dma-buf.
However, the rest of the series also makes sure each dma-buf have a
unique
inode(https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpatchwork.freedesktop.org%2Fpatch%2F310387%2F&data=04%7C01%7Cchristian.koenig%40amd.com%7C6652f423b96547b8321308d998772121%7C3dd8961fe4884e608e11a82d994e183d%7C0%7C0%7C637708459727236977%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=c%2Bbso%2BSxiPjwlv%2B9tAzA4x0gf5UktREhSiAsODFkihk%3D&reserved=0), and any
accounting
should probably use that, without relying on the name as much.
So, removing this restriction will let dma-buf userspace users to
use it
more comfortably and without any side effect.

We could now cleanup the return value from dma_buf_set_name() into a
void since that function can't fail any more as far as I can see.
But that isn't mandatory I think, patch is Reviewed-by: Christian

So, here is no need to check return value of 'strndup_user',
just return without error code if the almost impossible error occurs?
Good point, totally missed that one.
In that case I'm going to push the patch to drm-misc-next as is.
