This series introduces some improvements for UVC metadata:
- Allow bigger sizes of metadata.
- Refactor the code to avoid invalid pointer arithmetic.
- Add support for DMABUF
Cheers!

This entire series seems simple/safe enough and looks good to me from a review pov, so I've pushed this to uvc/for-next now. While it also rebasing uvc/for-next on top of the latest media-committers/next .

It is less prone to errors if we add a backpointer to stream from
struct uvc_video_queue.
Refactor the code.

Tested in real hardware with yavta:
(console A) # yavta -c /dev/video1
(console B) # yavta -c /dev/video0
It would be great if we add it as a follow-up patch to the already
merged series.
Thanks!
