Thanks, I found some minor changes compared to the LibreELEC version
that I am running some new tests on, plan to send out a v3 as soon as
testing completes later today.

In LibreELEC version we enable some error detection,

	// sw_cabac_error_e - cabac error enable
	writel(0xfdfffffd, rkvdec->regs + RKVDEC_REG_STRMD_ERR_EN);
	// slice end error enable = BIT(28)
	// frame end error enable = BIT(29)
	writel(0x30000000, rkvdec->regs + RKVDEC_REG_H264_ERR_E);

and in this series it was fully disabled to closer match H264/VP9:

	writel(0, rkvdec->regs + RKVDEC_REG_STRMD_ERR_EN);
	writel(0, rkvdec->regs + RKVDEC_REG_H264_ERR_E);

There is also an extra memset(0, ...) in rkvdec_hevc_start:

	memset(priv_tbl, 0, sizeof(*priv_tbl));

This should not really be needed and was removed in this series.

Still unclear if any of these will result in a changed behavior. Enable
of cabac/slice end/frame end error could possible activate some more
states when block issue a self-reset, but I am only guessing.

One thing to note for the flaky tests is that when they fail, they
typically just end up with a different consistent checksum. I have not
done any visual inspection of those frames, but will extract each frame
and compare them both bitwise and visually.

Regards,
Jonas
