A quick status update: I've asked others to review the v4l2/vb2 core patches
of 01-50. If nothing new crops up, then I plan to get patches 01-50 merged
early in the 6.8 cycle.

Before we can start on the remaining patches, we need to review drivers that
use min_buffers_needed and drivers where queue_setup checks if 'enough' buffers
are allocated.

We likely will need to make changes there before we can add DELETE_BUFS.

Regards,
