Hi,

This series includes some improvements around mtk_vcodec_mem_free() in
mtk_vcodec_util.c.

I noticed that mtk_vcodec_mem_free() generates a spurious error if the
target DMA buffer has been freed previously:
mtk_vcodec_mem_free(),69: [MTK_V4L2][ERROR] 18000000.video-codec
dma_free size=0 failed!

The warning is harmless, but it brings some confusion to our developers
and testing infra, so I sent this series to fix that with some minor
improvement for the driver alongside.

The first two patches are for aesthetic and style improvements, the
third tries to make the error logs more informative, and the last adds
back the missing checks when calling the free function.

Regards,
Fei

Hi Hans,

I'd like to get some attention for this series in case it has been
overlooked. It still applies to next-20240327 without conflict.
Please let me know if you have any feedback or concerns on this.

Sorry this seems to have slipped through my fingers, I'll put it on my
list. Thanks for the notification.


Thank you,
Fei

Greetings,
Sebastian
