/**
* get_dma_buf - convenience wrapper for get_file.
Add reference counting on a kernel module that exports dma-buf and implements its operations. This prevents the module from being unloaded while DMABUF file is in use. The original patch [1] was submitted by Tomasz Stanislawski, but this is a simpler way to do it. v3: call module_put() as late as possible, per gregkh's comment. v2: move owner to struct dma_buf, and use DEFINE_DMA_BUF_EXPORT_INFO macro to simplify the change.
