And by normal I mean the addfb/addfb2 ioctls. Those will go through
framebuffer_check() which does:
info = __drm_format_info(...)
if (!info) {
...
return -EINVAL;
}
Well, you should know since you write the code ;)
So the more special cases of internally created fbs is where the danger
lies I think.
I guess we could have drm_framebuffer_init() return a failure (also
maybe in the fb->dev!=dev case?). That would at least protect all the
uses after drm_framebuffer_init(). And I guess the uses before _init()
are somewhat of a special case, and up to each driver to make sure that
it knows what it's doing if it has uses like that.
