Subject: [PATCH 3/6] rust: drm: Add RegistrationData to drm::Driver
Date: Thu,  7 May 2026 00:06:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260506221027.858481-4-dakr@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260506221027.858481-1-dakr@kernel.org>

Add a RegistrationData associated type to drm::Driver. This is a ForLt
type whose lifetime is tied to the parent bus device binding scope.

Registration<T> takes ownership of the data via Pin<KBox<_>>, erasing
the lifetime to 'static for storage. The pointer is written to
drm::Device before drm_dev_register() to ensure it is already in place
when ioctls arrive.

UnbindGuard::registration_data() provides access with the lifetime
shortened from 'static via ForLt::cast_ref. Since Registration::drop()
calls drm_dev_unplug() -- which performs an SRCU barrier waiting for all
drm_dev_enter() critical sections to complete -- the data is guaranteed
to remain valid for the duration of any UnbindGuard.
