💅 mipi_dsi_device_unregister(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this one's a little function with a big job, and honestly? she's the friend who helps you pack up when the party's over 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

mipi_dsi_device_unregister — unregister a MIPI DSI device 🫶

like, she takes the DSI device off the guest list. bye bestie, no cap 💀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void mipi_dsi_device_unregister(struct mipi_dsi_device *dsi);

it returns void, so there's literally nothing to check afterwards — very "sent from my iPhone" of her 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• dsi — the DSI peripheral device 💖 that's the one you're unregistering, the main character of this whole operation, the it's giving peripheral if you will ✨
