    drm: no-op out GET_STATS ioctl · d79cdc83
    Daniel Vetter authored
    Again only used by a tests in libdrm and by dristat. Nowadays we have
    much better tracing tools to get detailed insights into what a drm
    driver is doing. And for a simple "does it work" kind of question that
    these stats could answer we have plenty of dmesg debug log spew.
    
    So I don't see any use for this stat gathering complexity at all.
    
    To be able to gradually drop things start with ripping out the
    interfaces to it, here the ioctl.
    
    To prevent dristat from eating its own stack garbage we can't use the
    drm_noop ioctl though, since we need to clear the return data with a
    memset.
