This patch adds extension to V4L2 api. It allow to export a mmap buffer as file
descriptor. New ioctl VIDIOC_EXPBUF is added. It takes a buffer offset used by
mmap and return a file descriptor on success.

This requires more discussions.

The usecase for this new API seems to replace the features previously provided
by the overlay mode. There, not only the buffer were exposed to userspace, but
some control were provided, in order to control the overlay window.

This ioctl was introduced to support exporting of V4L2 buffers via 
dma-buf interface. This framework was little common with overlay mode. 
Could you describe what overlay mode feature is replaced by VIDIOC_EXPBUF?


Please start a separate thread about that, explaining how are you imagining that
a V4L2 application would use such ioctl.

This patch is essential for full implementation of support for DMABUF 
framework in V4L2. Therefore the patch cannot be moved to separate thread.

Regrads,
Tomasz Stanislawski

Mauro
