Hans Verkuil 6093d3002e media: vb2: keep a reference to the request until dqbuf
When vb2_buffer_done is called the buffer is unbound from the
request and put. The media_request_object_put also 'put's the
request reference. If the application has already closed the
request fd, then that means that the request reference at that
point goes to 0 and the whole request is released.

This means that the control handler associated with the request is
also freed and that causes this kernel oops:

The vb2_buffer_done function can be called from interrupt context, so
anything that sleeps is not allowed.

The solution is to increment the request refcount when the buffer is
queued and decrement it when the buffer is dequeued. Releasing the
request is fine if that happens from VIDIOC_DQBUF.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
