Ok, I understand now what this patch fixes, but I still don't understand what the problem is and how this patch fixes it. AFAICS, there should be nothing wrong with calling mx3_videobuf_init() each time a buffer gets queued. I suspect, it's just one of those 4 lines of code, that you put under "if (buf->state != CSI_BUF_PREPARED)", that breaks it. Could you please try to find out which exactly line it is? Just try to use your "if (...)" with each of them separately. My guess goes for buf->state = CSI_BUF_NEEDS_INIT; but it would help if you could verify it.
