Alternatively, we can do something like below on the kernel side instead:
do nothing in v4l2 for DMABUF and preserve b->flags (if user-space has
passed cache management flags).

// But I think it'll be better to clear b->flags cache hints for DMABUF. To
// indicate that we don't accept cache-hints for DMABUF.
