Do you have a upstream driver that you plan to make use this new call?
Unfortunately I don't have an upstream driver using this call.
This call is called from dma-buf heaps "importer" or "customer", and I only made an example (do nothing) importer driver to test the call.
We want to have in-tree users of code added.
I think this is a generic way to use non-default CMA heaps, however, we need in-tree "importer" drivers to want to use non-default CMA heaps. I don't find it from now.
Yea, I and again, I do agree this is functionality that will be needed. But we'll need to wait for a user (camera driver, etc which would utilize the reserved cma region) before we can merge it upstream. :( Do let me know if you have an out of tree driver that would make use of it, and we can see what can be done to help upstream things.
