[PATCH v3 5/8] mm: cma: Export cma_alloc(), cma_release() and cma_get_name()
From: Maxime Ripard
Date: Tue Mar 03 2026 - 05:14:25 EST
The CMA dma-buf heap uses cma_alloc() and cma_release() to allocate and
free, respectively, its CMA buffers, and cma_get_name() to get the name
of the heap instance it's going to create.
However, these functions are not exported. Since we want to turn the CMA
heap into a module, let's export them both.
