process is put to sleep until the condition evaluates to true or signal
is received.

condition is checked each time the waitqueue head is woken up.

Also capture list may keep on getting updated with buffers from userspace.

but at a time we only limit 2 frames as VI supports double buffering and
syncpt fifo's max depth is 2

Any more buffers waiting will be processing on subsequent iterations.

So basically thread run time is depending on buffers getting queued from
userspace.
