A struct file is a bit too large to put on the kernel stack in general and triggers a warning for low settings of CONFIG_FRAME_WARN:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/selftests/mock_drm.c: In function 'mock_file': drivers/gpu/drm/i915/selftests/mock_drm.c:46:1: error: the frame size of 1328 bytes is larger than 1280 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] drivers/gpu/drm/i915/selftests/mock_drm.c: In function 'mock_file_free': drivers/gpu/drm/i915/selftests/mock_drm.c:54:1: error: the frame size of 1312 bytes is larger than 1280 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] It's also slightly dangerous to leave a reference to a stack object in the drm_file structure after leaving the stack frame. This changes the code to just allocate the object dynamically and release it when we are done with it.
