In commit
e2ff87732d0b ("v4l2videodec: support orphaning") support for
orphaning the capture buffer pool was added when the format is
renegotiated. However, the commit forgot to check that a pool existed
before doing this. This is needed because it's possible for the format
to be renegotiated before a capture pool is allocated, which would
result in trying to orphan a NULL pool and lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.
Fix this by checking a pool exists first. If the pool doesn't exist,
there are no buffers to be reclaimed, so skip the allocation query in
that case.
* the complexity and should not have much impact in performance since the
* following allocation query will happen on a drained pipeline and won't
* block. */
