The flush buffer is a special buffer that tells the decoder driver to send an empty CAPTURE frame to the client with V4L2_BUF_FLAG_LAST set. We need similar functionality for the encoder ; however currently the flush buffer depends on decoder-specific structures and thus cannot be reused with the encoder. Fix this by testing for this buffer by its VB2 address, and not through a dedicated flag stored in a higher-level decoder structure. This also allows us to remove said flag and simplify the code a bit. Since the flush buffer should never be used in the stateless decoder, also add safeguards to check against it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
