[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] hwcontext_vulkan: fix exporting multi-plane DRM modifiers

Is this documented anywhere? Should I maybe have a fixed sized stack
buffer and fallback to an allocation if it's just a rule of thumb that
it'll be less than some known small number. I just somehow doubt this
is in the vulkan spec or any sort of guaranteed....
