Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] videobuf2: Fix kernel memory overwriting

Hi folks,

There was a bug in the first version of the set --- the pb argument to
__vb2_get_done_vb() is NULL in cases which did not get tested the last time.

The second patch in the set was reverted for that reason.

This set contains a patch originally from David and again the second
reverted patch to fix the memory corruption issue. The previous set can be
found here:

The patches have been tested with V4L2 streaming and file I/O API but not
with DVB.

Kind regards,
Sakari
