Same as the other core functions: rather than an index, pass a valid
vb2_buffer pointer. Let the caller do the validation.

My rule of thumb is that the core code should only need to call
vb2_get_buffer() if it is walking over all buffers (i.e. in a
for-loop). For functions like this it should get the vb pointer
directly rather than having to look it up, since the caller
should have done that already.

When freeing all buffers (REQBUFS with count=0) the q->mmap_lock is taken.
I wonder if the same has to happen here. You don't want userspace to call mmap
while deleting a buffer.

I also think this should be refactored since __vb2_queue_free/__vb2_free_mem
need to do the same thing.

Add a check if index < q->num_buffers, count < q->num_buffers and that
the sum of the two <= q->num_buffers. I.e., basic sanity checks.

Return -EINVAL if that's the case.

Hmm. I wonder if vb2_core_delete_buf shouldn't be void, and instead
verify here first that all buffers your want to delete 1) exist, and
2) are in state DEQUEUED.

You can add INFO_FL_CLEAR here to automatically zero the reserved field. It also needs INFO_FL_PRIO.
