Patch Review

**Verdict: Has concerns that need resolution.**

This is the most complex patch. The overall design (Devres-managed SGTableMap with double-checked locking) is sound, but there are issues.

**Critical: `__drm_gem_shmem_free_sgt_locked()` does not exist in the current kernel tree.**

```rust
impl<T: DriverObject, C: DeviceContext> Drop for SGTableMap<T, C> {
    fn drop(&mut self) {
        let obj = unsafe { self.obj.as_ref() };
        let _lock = DmaResvGuard::new(obj);
        unsafe { bindings::__drm_gem_shmem_free_sgt_locked(obj.as_raw_shmem()) };
    }
}
```

I searched the drm-next tree and found no declaration or definition of this function. It must come from a prerequisite patch on drm-rust-next. This function is critical for correctness -- it must NULL out `shmem->sgt` after cleanup, otherwise `drm_gem_shmem_release()` will double-free the sg_table when it runs (it checks `if (shmem->sgt)` and cleans up).

The ordering in `free_callback()` is:
1. `sgt_res.reset()` -- drops SGTableMap, calls `__drm_gem_shmem_free_sgt_locked()`
2. `drm_gem_shmem_release()` -- would double-free if `shmem->sgt` wasn't NULLed

This is a known concern (the V13 changelog mentions "Fix double-free in free_callback()"), but reviewers should verify `__drm_gem_shmem_free_sgt_locked()` NULLs `shmem->sgt`.

**The double-checked locking pattern is correct:**
```rust
pub fn sg_table<'a>(&'a self, dev: &'a device::Device<Bound>) -> Result<&'a scatterlist::SGTable> {
    // Fast path
    if let Some(sgt_res) = self.sgt_res.as_ref() {
        break 'out sgt_res;
    }
    // Slow path with lock
    let _guard = self.sgt_lock.lock();
    if let Some(sgt_res) = self.sgt_res.as_ref() {
        break 'out sgt_res;
    }
    self.sgt_res.populate(Devres::new(dev, SGTableMap::new(self))?);
    unsafe { self.sgt_res.as_ref().unwrap_unchecked() }
```

The fast path uses `SetOnce::as_ref()` with Acquire ordering, the slow path is guarded by the mutex, and after populate the value is immediately available. This is sound.

**Device identity check is good defensive programming:**
```rust
if dev.as_raw() != self.dev().as_ref().as_raw() {
    return Err(EINVAL);
}
```

This prevents creating an SGTable bound to the wrong device, which the test `fail_sg_table_on_wrong_dev` validates.

**SGTableMap self-referential pointer:**

`SGTableMap` stores `NonNull<Object<T, C>>` pointing back to its own containing Object. This is safe because:
- `sgt_res` is explicitly reset in `free_callback()` before `KBox::from_raw(this)` drops the Object
- The Devres revocation on driver-unbind drops the SGTableMap while the Object (refcounted) is still alive

**The `SGTableMap::new()` return type is interesting:**
```rust
fn new(obj: &Object<T, C>) -> impl Init<Self, Error> {
    from_err_ptr(unsafe { bindings::drm_gem_shmem_get_pages_sgt(obj.as_raw_shmem()) })?;
    Ok(Self { obj: obj.into() })
}
```

This calls `drm_gem_shmem_get_pages_sgt()` which internally acquires/releases the dma_resv lock and initializes `shmem->sgt`. The returned pointer is discarded -- only the side effect (populating the sgt field) matters. This is correct but could use a brief comment explaining why the returned pointer isn't stored.

**Minor: Send/Sync impls:**
```rust
unsafe impl<T: DriverObject, C: DeviceContext> Send for SGTableMap<T, C> {}
unsafe impl<T: DriverObject, C: DeviceContext> Sync for SGTableMap<T, C> {}
```

The safety justification is that the NonNull points to a GEM object which is inherently thread-safe (refcounted, lock-protected). This is reasonable. The `DriverObject` bound already requires `Send + Sync` for the driver data.

**Test coverage:** The test only covers the failure path (wrong device). The TODO acknowledging the need for dummy dma_ops for success testing is honest and reasonable.
