Argh, I see what is happening. The root cause is that vb2_core_queue_release
is actually not a true counterpart to vb2_core_queue_init.

The '_release' part refers to when a file handle is released, and not to
releasing resources allocated in queue_init.

The queue_init function never actually allocated any resources, so there
was never a reason to make a counterpart to that, but now that bites us.

Changing this would be a huge amount of work, and it is not worth the
effort, IMHO.

But at least we shouldn't have to test for both bufs and bufs_map,
they are either both set or both NULL. Just test one of the two.

The vb2_core_queue_init() function documentation in the header
should perhaps be more clear about the fact that this function
does not allocate any resources, and that there is no cleanup
counterpart.

It is what got me confused...
