Hi Robin,
      While our v4l2 testing, It seems that we met a problem here.
      Here we update prev->length again, Do we need update
sg_dma_len(prev) again too?

      Some function like vb2_dc_get_contiguous_size[1] always get
sg_dma_len(s) to compare instead of s->length. so it may break
unexpectedly while sg_dma_len(s) is not same with s->length.
