[PATCH 2/4 v3] drm: Introduce drm_connector_register_all() helper

Alexey Brodkin Alexey.Brodkin at synopsys.com
Wed Mar 23 08:42:55 UTC 2016


As a pair to already existing drm_connector_unregister_all() we're adding
generic implementation of what is already done in some drivers.

Once this helper is implemented we'll be ready to switch existing
driver-specific implementations with the generic one.

Changes v2 -> v3:
 * Updated title with capital after colon
 * Simplified failure path with direct and unconditional invocation of
   unregister_all()
 * Updated kerneldoc description of the drm_connector_register_all()

Changes v1 -> v2:
 * Rename drm_connector_unplug_all() to drm_connector_unregister_all()
 * Use drm_for_each_connector() instead of list_for_each_entry()
 * Updated kerneldoc for drm_dev_register()
