Adding to a list is changing driver state. The callback must not
modify anything else than the request itself.

Queuing to driver's list should happen in req_queue instead.

If we use a spin_lock to protect the counter, perhaps we don't need
the atomic type anymore?

Could we instead check the counter here and break if it's >=
MTK_ISP_MAX_RUNNING_JOBS?
Then we could increment it here too to simplify the code.

With the above suggestion, this if block would go away.

Do you mean that it was the Clang toolchain used on Chromium OS (e.g.
emerge chromeos-kernel-4_19)?

Note that Chromium OS will use the "upstream driver" and we don't want
to diverge, so please make the userspace also use only requests. I
don't see a reason why there would be any need to submit any buffers
outside of a request.

Are you sure that this callback can be only called after
stop_streaming? Also wouldn't that be after stop_streaming only on 1
queue? The other queues could still remain streaming, but we still
have to return corresponding buffers I believe.

Hans, could you clarify what exactly this callback is supposed to do?
