Subject: [PATCH v5] drm/vkms: convert to use faux_device
Date: Tue, 1 Jul 2025 12:49:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2025070147-antics-pleat-edd2@gregkh> (raw)
The vkms driver does not need to create a platform device, as there is
no real platform resources associated it, it only did so because it was
simple to do that in order to get a device to use for resource
management of drm resources. Change the driver to use the faux device
instead as this is NOT a real platform device.

v5: - rebased against 6.16-rc4
- added reviewed-by and tested-by lines
- was somehow dropped from drm trees, resending to make sure it
isn't lost
v4: - first version of the patch, was part of a larger patch series that
has been mostly all applied to the tree.
