Subject: [PATCH 1/3] media: videobuf2: Add a transfer error event
From: Niklas Söderlund <niklas.soderlund+renesas@...natech.se>
Add a new V4L2_EVENT_XFER_ERROR event to signal if an error happens during
video transfer.
The use-case that sparked this new event is to signal to the video
device driver that an error has happen on the CSI-2 bus from the CSI-2
receiver subdevice.

+ - This event is triggered when an transfer error is detected while
+ streaming. For example if an error is detected on a video bus in
+ the pipeline. If a driver receives this event from an upstream
+ subdevice, it has to forward the event to userspace. The streaming
+ application has to check if the transfer error is unrecoverable,
+ i.e. no new buffers can be dequeued from the kernel after the
+ expected time. If the error is unrecoverable, the streaming
+ application should restart streaming if it wants to continue.

- 0x08000000
- Base event number for driver-private events.
