Subject: [PATCH v3 10/15] [media] vb2: add 'ordered' property to queues

From: Gustavo Padovan <gustavo.padovan@...labora.com>

For explicit synchronization (and soon for HAL3/Request API) we need
the v4l2-driver to guarantee the ordering in which the buffers were queued
by userspace. This is already true for many drivers, but we never needed
to say it.
