What's the reason for this WARN_ON? It's not immediately obvious to me.

I think this will clash big time with the v4l2 fence patch series...

If I understand all this correctly, then you are queuing one request at a
time to the vb2_queue. I.e. all the buffers queued to the driver belong to
the same request (q->cur_req). But that might work for codecs, but not
for camera drivers: you will typically have multiple requests queued up in
the driver.

In any case, I don't think the req_buf_cnt and cur_req fields belong in
vb2_queue.

Another weird thing here is that it appears that you allow for multiple
buffers for the same device in the same request. I'm not sure that is
useful. For one, it will postpone the completion of the request until
all buffers are dequeued.

I'm trying to remember what we decided w.r.t. mixing buffers associated with
a request and buffers without a request. I can't see anything in the meeting
notes. I have a faint memory that we decided to not allow that (i.e. once
you start using requests, then all buffers should be associated with a
request). Does anyone remember?

As mentioned above, this is very dubious.
