Media driver reverted previous patches, and file a new PR https://github.com/intel/media-driver/pull/1680 will hold this PR until the uapi changes appear in drm_next. besides this, ask a dumb question. How we retrieve the pat_index from a shared resource though dma_buf fd? maybe we need to know whether it could be CPU cached if we want map it. Of course, looks there are no real usage to access it though CPU. Just use it directly without any pat related options ?
