close the file handle -> the file handle is closed

No, this line should actually go before the 'if'.

VIDIOC_REQBUFS is a bit odd: if you call it with count > 0, then
it will first delete all existing buffers and implicitly go out
of the 'busy' state. Then it attempts to allocate the new buffers,
and if that is successful, then it is back to the busy state.

So regardless of the count value, you need to set is_busy to 0 here.

You missed vb2_core_queue_release(): that's called when the file handle is closed,
so that should set q->is_busy to 0 as well.
