Sorry, this won't work. Calling __vb2_dqbuf will overwrite the state
VB2_BUF_STATE_ERROR and so the V4L2_BUF_FLAG_ERROR flag will never be
set. The same is true for the last 'if' in the __fill_v4l2_buffer()
function.

I think it might be better to keep this code and instead change the
vb2_internal_dqbuf function to just clear the DONE flag after calling
vb2_core_dqbuf.

It would be nice to have a v4l2_compliance check for this as well.

Hans
