This should just be:

if (!V4L2_TYPE_IS_OUTPUT(vq->type))
vb2_set_plane_payload(vb, 0, f->fmt.pix_mp.plane_fmt[0].sizeimage);

If the application passes 0 as bytesused, then 1) a warning will be generated
by the v4l2 core and 2) the v4l2 core will set bytesused to the length of the
buffer. See vb2_fill_vb2_v4l2_buffer() in videobuf2-v4l2.c.

Some old drivers explicitly allow bytesused to be 0 for an output queue to
signal end-of-stream, but that's only supported if the allow_zero_bytesused
flag is set in the vb2_queue, and that shall not be used for new drivers
since it is deprecated functionality.

Hans
