I believe I documented this in patch 4:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/";
Is there anything else that should be added?

  1275 /**
  1276  * dma_buf_move_notify - notify attachments that DMA-buf is moving
  1277  *
  1278  * @dmabuf:     [in]    buffer which is moving
  1279  *
  1280  * Informs all attachments that they need to destroy and recreate all 
their
  1281  * mappings. If the attachment is dynamic then the dynamic importer is 
expected
  1282  * to invalidate any caches it has of the mapping result and perform a 
new
  1283  * mapping request before allowing HW to do any further DMA.
  1284  *
  1285  * If the attachment is pinned then this informs the pinned importer that
  1286  * the underlying mapping is no longer available. Pinned importers may 
take
  1287  * this is as a permanent revocation so exporters should not trigger it
  1288  * lightly.
  1289  *
  1290  * For legacy pinned importers that cannot support invalidation this is 
a NOP.
  1291  * Drivers can call dma_buf_attach_revocable() to determine if the 
importer
  1292  * supports this.
  1293  *
  1294  * NOTE: The invalidation triggers asynchronous HW operation and the 
callers
  1295  * need to wait for this operation to complete by calling
  1296  * to dma_resv_wait_timeout().
  1297  */

Thanks
