Thomas Zimmermann a193f3b4e0 drm/shmem-helper: Pass GEM shmem object in public interfaces
Change all GEM SHMEM object functions that receive a GEM object
of type struct drm_gem_object to expect an object of type
struct drm_gem_shmem_object instead.

This change reduces the number of upcasts from struct drm_gem_object
by moving them into callers. The C compiler can now verify that the
GEM SHMEM functions are called with the correct type.

For consistency, the patch also renames drm_gem_shmem_free_object to
drm_gem_shmem_free. It further updates documentation for a number of
functions.

v3:
	* fix docs for drm_gem_shmem_object_free()
v2:
	* mention _object_ callbacks in docs (Daniel)

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.
