Bunch of comments on the glue, I didn't look at the drawing function in
detail assuming that that's all working :-)

You need to tie these nice kerneldocs into the overall documentation tree,

The locking here is busted. Which is why the atomic notifier chain is
special and uses atomic semantics - I would just avoid this issue and
directly register each drm_panic_device instead of trying to maintain a
drm-local list and getting the locking rules wrong.

Can't we just store a pointer in drm_device (or embed the entire thing
outright) instead of this dance?

I'd move this to the documentation of drm_scanout_buffer and just put a
kernel-doc hyperlink in here referencing that for further information.

Please put this hook into drm_mode_config_funcs and not into the overall
drm_driver struct. At least for kms we're trying to keep a clean design
(and I know that stuff like dumb buffers got misplaced, not a good reason
to do it again ...).

I think it's better to move this to the documentation of @map and
@draw_pixel_xy.

The should here is confusing, because it's an either/or.

I think you're a bit unclear on whether you allow non-null @map for the
case when @draw_pixel_xy is set. Current docs says it's either/or, but you
don't have any checks for iosys_map_is_null(). I'd add something like

	WARN_ON(sb->draw_pixel_xy && !iosys_map_is_null(sb->map));

right after the call to ->get_scanout_buffer to lock down this rule.

Uh how does flush work for the @map path? I'd just pass the overall
drm_scanout_buffer struct to both of these hooks as the first parameter
and let the driver figure out what it needs.
