Good question. I'll take another look at this.

Actually, that's not true. struct vb2_buffer contains struct media_request_object
but it is only allocated when you allocate the buffers, after that this has to
be initialized every time you queue or prepare a buffer for a request.

It's probably true for everything else though, but buffers are the exception.

??? If a request is being queued then the state is QUEUEING and you cannot
bind this object due to the test above. That's also the reason for having the
QUEUEING state: to prevent binding an object to a request that is in the
process of being queued.

Sorry, no idea what you mean. Could it be that you want to move the ops and
priv arguments to the object_init() function instead of the bind()?

If that's the case, then I'll have to look at that. I think I did that at
one point in time, but I moved it to the bind for some reason.

I think it would be better to split the req_queue op in two ops, so
media_request_ioctl_queue() would do this (pseudo code):

	req->state = MEDIA_REQUEST_STATE_PREPARING;
	ret = req->ops->req_prepare(req);
	if (ret) {
		req->state = IDLE;
		return ret;
	}
	req->state = QUEUED;
	req->ops->req_queue(req);  // void function, must always succeed
	return 0;

I think this works safely.
