Subject: [PATCH] rust: DmaFence: Add better warning through Device reference
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2026 10:19:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260925081958.3048112-2-phasta@kernel.org> (raw)

FenceContext::drop() contains a warning print that warns about possible
memory corruptions if there are forgotten fences. However, precisely
speaking, a forgotten fence is undefined behavior.

Moreover, forgotten fences hint at a severe design problem in the
driver. In this context, the used pr_err!() does not provide very useful
text output.

Replace the warning print with a dev_warn!(). To do so, have the
FenceContext carry a reference to a Device, protected by the already
present lifetime.
