I applied patches 1-46 on top of staging and applied patch 1/2 of v4l-utils. I chose
1-46 since those would be the first batch to be merged.

I had to apply a small patch on top, since amphion was still using max_allowed_buffers:

https://git.linuxtv.org/hverkuil/media_tree.git/commit/?h=delbuf&id=fce79aa0239a3a4e5c7634b9b7ffc356057b70b4

With that change everything compiled cleanly.

But running the regression tests (test-media script) failed with a kernel oops:

I use the build scripts as described here:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-media/18989016-6392-a77b-6cf7-1223c9161def@xs4all.nl/

I use this command to run the regression tests:

./build.sh -virtme -virtme-utils-path /usr/local/bin none delbuf

(delbuf is the name of my branch)

I don't really want to spend time reviewing this series until this is fixed...

Regards,
