From: Hans Verkuil <hans.verkuil@xxxxxxxxx>
Add support for 'tags' to struct v4l2_buffer. These can be used
by m2m devices so userspace can set a tag for an output buffer and
this value will then be copied to the capture buffer(s).
This tag can be used to refer to capture buffers, something that
is needed by stateless HW codecs.
The new V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_TAGS capability indicates whether
or not tags are supported.
