Hi,

This series includes some improvements around mtk_vcodec_mem_free() in
mtk_vcodec_util.c.

I noticed that mtk_vcodec_mem_free() generates a spurious error if the
target DMA buffer has been freed previously:
  mtk_vcodec_mem_free(),69: [MTK_V4L2][ERROR] 18000000.video-codec
  dma_free size=0 failed!

The warning is harmless, but it brings some confusion to our developers
and testing infra, so I sent this series to fix that with some minor
improvement for the driver alongside.

The first two patches are for aesthetic and style improvements, the
third tries to make the error logs more informative, and the last adds
back the missing checks when calling the free function.

Regards,
Fei

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231113123049.4117280-1-fshao@chromium.org/

Changes in v2:
- rebased on top of next-20231219
- revise commit message for clearer intention and rationale
- update the error messages based on the suggestion

  media: mediatek: vcodec: Drop unnecessary variable
  media: mediatek: vcodec: Update mtk_vcodec_mem_free() error messages
  media: mediatek: vcodec: Only free buffer VA that is not NULL

Hi Hans,

I'd like to get some attention for this series in case it has been
overlooked. It still applies to next-20240327 without conflict.
Please let me know if you have any feedback or concerns on this.

Thank you,
Fei

Sorry this seems to have slipped through my fingers, I'll put it on my
list. Thanks for the notification.
