I think this should be on the attachment, not on the buffer. Or is the
idea that a pin is for the entire buffer, and all subsequent
dma_buf_map_attachment must work for all attachments? I think this matters
for sufficiently contrived p2p scenarios.

Either way, docs need to clarify this.

This adds an unconditional reservat lock to map/unmap, which is think
pisses off drivers. This gets fixed later on with the caching, but means
the series is broken here.

Also, that super-fine grained split-up makes it harder for me to review
the docs, since only until the very end are all the bits present for full
dynamic dma-buf mappings.

I think it'd be best to squash all the patches from pin up to the one that
adds the invalidate callback into one patch. It's all changes to
dma-buf.[hc] only anyway. If that is too big we can think about how to
split it up again, but at least for me the current splitting doesn't make
sense at all.

Leaks the pin if we fail here.

"This callback is optional, but must be provided if @pin is." Same for
@pin I think, plus would be good to check in dma_buf_export that you have
both or neither with

	WARN_ON(!!exp_info->ops->pin == !!exp_info->ops->unpin);

I think dropping this outright isn't correct, since for all current
dma-buf exporters it's still what they should be doing. We just need to
make this conditional on @pin and @unpin not being present:

	"If @pin and @unpin are not provided this essentially pins the DMA
	buffer into place, and it cannot be moved any more."

Same here, add a "If @pin and @unpin are not provided this should ..."
qualifier instead of deleting.
