[PATCH v1] [media] uvcvideo: mark buffer error where overflow

From: Baoyou Xie
Date: Wed Sep 06 2017 - 23:01:32 EST


Some cameras post inaccurate frame where next frame data overlap
it. this results in screen flicker, and it need to be prevented.

So this patch marks the buffer error to discard the frame where
buffer overflow.
