Hi Hans,

Please ignore and reject this patch. videobuf_queue_vmalloc_init needs to be in probe, not in open.

Let me know your thoughts on doing videobuf2 before s2255_fh removal so we don't have to work around or fix videobuf version one's deficiencies.

Thanks,

has convenient and safe functions for locking streaming resources.

The removal of s2255_fh (and s2255_fh->resources) was not done now to
avoid using videobuf_queue_is_busy.

videobuf_queue_is busy may be unsafe as noted by the following comment
in videobuf-core.c:
"/* Locking: Only usage in bttv unsafe find way to remove */"
