Hi Robert,

Thanks for the patch.

free_buffer() is called from two locations: from the .buf_release()
callback and on the error path in .buf_prepare(). In the first case it
does the complete freeing of the buffers and DMA channels, in the latter
case the error path, including buffer freeing can _only_ be entered if
buffer allocation has been attempted, i.e. buffer state is
VIDEOBUF_NEEDS_INIT. Which is exactly the case you're catching below.
Following your patch, in this case free_buffer() shouldn't be called at
all, because videobuf_waiton() isn't needed either. That can be achieved
easier:

fail_u:
dma_free_coherent(dev, buf->dmas[0].sg_size,
buf->dmas[0].sg_cpu, buf->dmas[0].sg_dma);
-fail:
- free_buffer(vq, buf);
out:
buf->inwork = 0;
return ret;

But tbh I don't understand why videobuf_dma_free() and
videobuf_dma_unmap() shouldn't be called if videobuf_iolock() was
successful, are you sure about that?

Thanks
Guennadi
