like literally it makes the array, hooks each job up to its matching sync_ops args, and copies those args in. no cap. π«Ά
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int pvr_job_data_init (struct pvr_device *pvr_dev , struct pvr_file
*pvr_file , struct drm_pvr_job *job_args , u32 *job_count , struct
pvr_job_data *job_data_out );
she returns an int, she takes five things, she's iconic π
