media: cedrus: add action item to the TODO
Mention that the request validation should increment the memory refcount of reference buffers so we don't forget to do this. Acked-by: Paul Kocialkowski <paul.kocialkowski@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>

@@ -5,3 +5,8 @@ Before this stateless decoder driver can leave the staging area:
* Userspace support for the Request API needs to be reviewed;
* Another stateless decoder driver should be submitted;
* At least one stateless encoder driver should be submitted.
+* When queueing a request containing references to I frames, the
+ refcount of the memory for those I frames needs to be incremented
+ and decremented when the request is completed. This will likely
+ require some help from vb2. The driver should fail the request
+ if the memory/buffer is gone.
