Hello Hans,
I'm sorry for a delay. Once again I've been busy with some other
internal stuff.

Kamil, Marek,
Why does v4l2_m2m_poll unlock and lock in that function?
I've checked the code and indeed the poll_wait() function doesn't do
anything that
should not be done with queue mutex being taken. I don't remember if it
was always
like that. You are right that the unlock&lock code should be removed.
Zahari is right that the locking is unbalanced, but I don't see the reason
for the unlock/lock sequence in the first place. I'm wondering if that
shouldn't just be removed.
Am I missing something?
Instead, I would expect to see a spin_lock_irqsave(&src/dst_q->done_lock, flags)
around the list_empty(&src/dst_q->done_list) calls.
Indeed, that's another thing that should be fixed in this function. I
looks that
commit c16218402a000bb25c1277c43ae98c11bcb59bd1 ("[media] videobuf2:
return -EPIPE
from DQBUF after the last buffer") is the root cause of both issues
(unballanced
locking and lack of spinlock protection), while the unnecessary queue
unlock/lock
sequence was there from the beginning.
Regards,
Hans

This commit fixes bad unlock balance when polling. v4l2_m2m_poll is called
with mutex hold but the function releases the mutex and returns.
This leads to the bad unlock because after the call of v4l2_m2m_poll in
v4l2_m2m_fop_poll the mutex is again unlocked. This patch makes sure that
the v4l2_m2m_poll returns always with balanced locks.
