Subject: Re: [PATCH v6 3/4] media: meson: add v4l2 m2m video decoder driver

Hi Maxime,

First a high-level comment: I think this driver should go to staging.
Once we finalize the stateful decoder spec, and we've updated the
v4l2-compliance test, then this needs to be tested against that and
only if it passes can it be moved out of staging.

It is just a bit too soon to have this in mainline at this time.

Why is this volatile? That makes little sense.
