When the comment needs to state explicitly that this doesn't get a reference to the object then the function is named rather badly. Rename the function and use rcu_dereference_check(), this way it can be used from both rcu as well as lock protected critical sections. v2: improve kerneldoc as suggested by Daniel v3: use dma_resv_excl_fence as function name Signed-off-by: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Reviewed-by: Jason Ekstrand <jason@jlekstrand.net> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20210602111714.212426-4-christian.koenig@amd.com
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
