We already have a method for doing that which is used by almost all drivers (except for lsdc).

Basically you just create a function which checks the per-requisites if a buffer can be exported before calling drm_gem_prime_export() and installs that as .export callback into the drm_gem_object_funcs.

See amdgpu_gem_prime_export() for a simpler example.

Christian.
