Sorry, I thought that this solution was suggested (and tested on Venus
v4) by you, right?

OK if you are still seeing issues I think we can switch to
vb2_set_plane_payload(vb, 0, bytesused); for all buffers? I.e. not only
for buffers with flag V4L2_BUF_FLAG_LAST set.

Is 'bytesused' != 0 in case of EoS ever?

i.e. shouldn't this be vb->planes[0].bytesused = 0 ?
