[PATCH v5 00/10] MPEG-2 stateless API cleanup and destaging

[Ezequiel Garcia]

Hi everyone,

Over the last few weeks Daniel Almeida and Nicolas Dufresne
have been working on GStreamer v4l2codecs support for stateless
MPEG-2 decoding.

This allowed us to re-review the MPEG-2 specification and re-discuss
the API with some additional insight. The API now looks quite cleaner,
and hopefully ready for destaging.

This series is mostly thanks to Daniel and Nicolas!

Patches 1 to 7 cleanup the API, and patches 8 to 10 move it
out of staging.

This is tested on i.MX8M and RK3399 platforms, using GStreamer
v4l2codecs, which will be upstream very soon.

v5:
* Rename "quantization" to "quantisation", so the terminology
  matches the MPEG-2 specification.
  This is the only change in v5, compared to v4.

v4:
* Rework and clarify quantization matrices control semantics.
* Move reference buffer fields to the picture parameter control.
* Remove slice parameters control. This can be added back in the
  future if needed, but for now it's not used.
  See patch 6/9 for details.
* Destage the API.

v3:
* No API changes, just minor boilerplate fixes for the new
  controls to be properly exposed, initialized and validated.

v2:
* Fixed bad use of boolean negation in a flag, which
  was fortunately reported by 0day bot.
