Greg Hackmann bb2bb90304 dma-buf: add DMA_BUF_SET_NAME ioctls
This patch adds complimentary DMA_BUF_SET_NAME  ioctls, which lets
userspace processes attach a free-form name to each buffer.

This information can be extremely helpful for tracking and accounting
shared buffers.  For example, on Android, we know what each buffer will
be used for at allocation time: GL, multimedia, camera, etc.  The
userspace allocator can use DMA_BUF_SET_NAME to associate that
information with the buffer, so we can later give developers a
breakdown of how much memory they're allocating for graphics, camera,
etc.

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
