[PATCH v3 00/11] Add DELETE_BUF ioctl

Unlike when resolution change on keyframes, dynamic resolution change
on inter frames doesn't allow to do a stream off/on sequence because
it is need to keep all previous references alive to decode inter frames.
This constraint have two main problems:
- more memory consumption.
- more buffers in use.
To solve these issue this series introduce DELETE_BUF ioctl and remove
the 32 buffers limit per queue.

VP9 conformance tests using fluster give a score of 210/305.
The 25 resize inter tests (vp90-2-21-resize_inter_* files) are ok
but require to use postprocessor.

Kernel branch is available here:
https://gitlab.collabora.com/benjamin.gaignard/for-upstream/-/commits/remove_vb2_queue_limit_v3

GStreamer branch to use DELETE_BUF ioctl and testing dynamic resolution
change is here:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/benjamin.gaignard1/gstreamer/-/commits/VP9_drc

changes in version 3:
- Use Xarray API to store allocated video buffers.
- No module parameter to limit the number of buffer per queue.
- Use Xarray inside Verisilicon driver to store postprocessor buffers
  and remove VB2_MAX_FRAME limit.
- Allow Versilicon driver to change of resolution while streaming
- Various fixes the Verisilicon VP9 code to improve fluster score.
 
changes in version 2:
- Use a dynamic array and not a list to keep trace of allocated buffers.
  Not use IDR interface because it is marked as deprecated in kernel
  documentation.
- Add a module parameter to limit the number of buffer per queue.
- Add DELETE_BUF ioctl and m2m helpers.

Benjamin Gaignard (11):
  media: videobuf2: Access vb2_queue bufs array through helper functions
  media: videobuf2: Use Xarray instead of static buffers array
  media: videobuf2: Remove VB2_MAX_FRAME limit on buffer storage
  media: videobuf2: Stop define VB2_MAX_FRAME as global
  media: verisilicon: Refactor postprocessor to store more buffers
  media: verisilicon: Store chroma and motion vectors offset
  media: verisilicon: vp9: Use destination buffer height to compute
    chroma offset
