[FFmpeg-devel] [RESEND PATCH] avcodec/v4l2_context: always log POLLERR when buffers are uninitialized

[Richard Acayan]

The error handler for POLLERRs assumes that the timeout is only zero
when v4l2_dequeue_v4l2buf is called by v4l2_getfree_v4l2buf. This
assumption is incorrect, as ff_v4l2_context_dequeue_frame also calls
this function with a timeout of zero. Do not check for unavailable
buffers if the buffers are uninitialized.

See https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/9957 for the original bug report.
