I didn't realize this the first time I reviewed this, but I would
suggest that you change this to

vb2_core_delete_bufs(struct vb2_queue *q, unsigned int index, unsigned int count)

This is consistent with vb2_core_create_bufs, and I strongly suspect it will
help with locking (mmap_lock), since you don't need to lock for every buffer you
delete, you can do it up front.

And you can move the index/count validation to the core as well, that will help
if e.g. dvb would want to use this ioctl in the future.
