why do we need this mechanism? What was the logic behind? These
are all questions people might have when checking this commit.
Please be a bit more explicative.
Agree, the commit message is bit short. I will add more content in next
revision.
you don't need to send a new version just for this commit log.
You could just propose a new commit log in the reply and if it's
OK, add it before pushing it.
Let me know what do you think about:
Add a mechanism to preserve existing data when creating a TTM
object with the I915_BO_ALLOC_USER flag. This will be used in the subsequent
patch where the I915_BO_ALLOC_USER flag will be applied to the framebuffer
object. For a pre-allocated framebuffer without the I915_BO_PREALLOC flag,
TTM would clear the content, which is not desirable.
Thanks,
Nirmoy
As you wish.
