The problem I have with this is that this should be specific to V4L2. The only
reason we do this is that we had to stay backwards compatible with vb1.

This is the reason this code was placed in videobuf2-v4l2.c. But you are correct
that this causes a regression, and I see no other choice but to put it in core.c.

That said, I would still only honor this when called from v4l2, so I suggest that
a new flag 'check_waiting_for_buffers' is added that is only set in vb2_queue_init
in videobuf2-v4l2.c.

So the test above becomes:

if (q->check_waiting_for_buffers && q->waiting_for_buffers &&
(req_events & (POLLIN | POLLRDNORM)))

It's not ideal, but at least this keeps this v4l2 specific.

Regards,

Hans
