[PATCH] media: Request API is no longer experimental

From: Ezequiel Garcia
Date: Tue Aug 24 2021 - 20:25:22 EST


The Request API is currently used and specified as part of the
Memory-to-memory Stateless Video Decoder Interface [1].

This can now be considered as non-experimental and stable, given
the decoder API has been used by products since a couple years,
supported by several drivers and userspace frameworks,

interfaces. It is currently needed by a few stateless codec drivers.
-
- There is currently no intention to provide API or ABI stability for
- this new API as of yet.
