Patch "[media] v4l: vb2: Fix stream start and buffer completion race" has a
sets q->start_streaming_called before calling queue op start_streaming() in
order to fix a bug. This has the side effect that buffers returned to
videobuf2 in VB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED will cause a WARN_ON() to be called.

Add a new field called done_buffers_queued_state to struct vb2_queue, which
must be set if the new state of buffers returned to videobuf2 must be
VB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED, i.e. buffers returned in start_streaming op.

This condition needs to be changed, too. I'll resend a corrected version.

I posted a fix for this over a month ago:

https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg77871.html

Unfortunately, the pull request with that patch (https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/25162/)
fell through the cracks as I discovered yesterday. Hopefully Mauro will pick
up that pull request quickly.

I prefer my patch since that avoids introducing yet another state variable.

Regards,

	Hans

Using less state variables is good, but with your patch returning buffers
back to videobuf2 to state VB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED is possible also after
start_stream() has finished. That's probably a lesser problem, though.

I'm fine with your patch as well.
