---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• pinstance — pointer to the adapter soft state. yes queen, hand over your struct pmcraid_instance * and let her do her thing 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so the vibe here is release. per-adapter buffers that got allocated? they're getting released. that's it, that's the function. no cap.

Return Value: none. literally none. it's void, she gives nothing back and she's iconic for it 😭✨
