Refcount all of the context information.
---
As discussed in the other thread, something like this.  We move most of the context into a refcounted buffer and AVCodecContext.priv_data is left as a stub holding a reference to it.

Thoughts:
* Change is rather ugly; some structures and function arguments could probably be rearranged to improve it.
* Not very well tested - I'm only testing it with the decoder on s5p-mfc.  (Encoder might well be totally broken.)
* It currently adds an extra atomic to each buffer to keep track of the context-references that isn't really wanted.  Cleaning up the per-plane references so we only go through the buffer-free sequence once would remove it.

I found several more issues while looking at this (not treated here):
* The refsync process with the semaphore is racy - it will fall over if the buffer unrefs are called on multiple threads at the same time.
* Buffers are requeued once for every plane they have as a consequnce of the per-plane references (NV12 buffer -> enqueue twice).  The later enqueues are ignored by the driver (QBUF returns EINVAL; look at strace), but that should probably still be treated as a bug.
* It seems to be able to leak all of the input packets (if refcounted?) - valgrind shows this, but I didn't investigate further.

Thanks,

- Mark

um, ok ... please could you send a patch so I can apply it? I see 
several problems in v4l2_free_buffer.

To sum up the RFC, instead of using private_data to place the codec's 
context, it uses private data to place a _pointer_ to an allocated codec 
context "just" so it wont be deallocated after the codec is closed 
(codec close frees the private_data)

Personally I think adding AV_CODEC_FLAG2_PRESERVE_PRIVDATA_ONCLOSE and 
use private_data to hold the codec context is a cleaner/simpler approach.

- the codec requests private_data with a size (sizeof(type))
- the code explicitly informs the API whether all memory will be 
released on close or it will preserve it.

about the last issue, I think this is related of how bsf is used in 3.4 
codecs and not to the v4l2 codec implementation itself
Running the v4l2 m2m decoding in 3.4 vs running 3.3 shows the following 
(I am using the flag to preserve the private_data in both cases)

Using ref-counting is a mechanism we already have in-place for this
kind of thing, adding another global flag only used by one decoder is
not a preferred approach.

What goes wrong?  It applies fine for me on current head (f4090940bd3024e69d236257d327f11d1e496229).

- All APIs in ffmpeg with this sort of private data field use them in the same way - they are allocated at create/alloc time (with the given size, for AVOptions), and freed at close/destroy time.
- Using the well-tested reference-counted buffer implementation is IMO strongly preferable to making ad-hoc synchronisation with atomics and semaphores.
- All other decoders use the reference-counted buffer approach (e.g. look at rkmpp for a direct implementation, the hwaccels all do it via hwcontext).
