In this patch(https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpatchwork....), it add a new IOCTL to support dma-buf user to set debug name.
But it also added a limitation of this IOCTL, it needs the attachments of dmabuf should be empty, otherwise it will fail.
For the original series, the idea was that allowing name change mid-use could confuse the users about the dma-buf. However, the rest of the series also makes sure each dma-buf have a unique inode(https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpatchwork....), and any accounting should probably use that, without relying on the name as much.
So, removing this restriction will let dma-buf userspace users to use it more comfortably and without any side effect.

We could now cleanup the return value from dma_buf_set_name() into a void since that function can't fail any more as far as I can see.
But that isn't mandatory I think, patch is Reviewed-by: Christian König christian.koenig@amd.com
So, here is no need to check return value of 'strndup_user', just return without error code if the almost impossible error occurs?
Good point, totally missed that one.
In that case I'm going to push the patch to drm-misc-next as is.
