Chris Wilson cc731f5a3b drm/i915: Trim struct_mutex hold duration for i915_gem_free_objects
We free objects in bulk after they wait for their RCU grace period.
Currently, we take struct_mutex and unbind all the objects. This can lead
to a long lock duration during which time those objects have their pages
unfreeable (i.e. the shrinker is prevented from reaping those pages). If
we only process a single object under the struct_mutex and then free the
pages, the number of objects locked away from the shrinker is minimal
and we allow regular clients better access to struct_mutex if they need
it.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
