Currently vmwgfx uses the dev_private opaque pointer in drm_device to store driver data in vmw_private struct. Using dev_private is deprecated, and the recommendation is to embed struct drm_device in the larger per-device structure. The vmwgfx driver already embeds struct drm_device in its struct vmw_private, so switch to using that exclusively and stop using dev_private.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
