🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

So this macro is literally just shorthand for setting the GEM file ops inside the file_operations structure — a little shortcut so you don't have to type it all out yourself, iykyk 💅

And here's the tea: if all you need are the default ops, you should be using DEFINE_DRM_GEM_FOPS instead. periodt 🫶
