We used to track the 'allocating' status on the pool. It is used while
allocating so output buffers aren't passed right away to OMX and input
ones are not re-added to the pending queue.
This was causing a bug when exporting buffers to v4l2src. On start
v4l2src acquires a buffer, read its stride and release it right away.
As no buffer was received by the encoder element at this point, 'allocating'
was still on TRUE and so the the buffer wasn't put back to the pending
queue and, as result, no longer available to the pool.
Fix this by checking the active status of the pool instead of manually
tracking it down. The pool is considered as active at the very end of
the activation process so we're good when buffers are released during
the activation.
The zynqultrascaleplus OMX implementation has a custom extension
allowing decoders to output dmabuf and so avoid buffers copy between OMX
and GStreamer.
Make use of this extension when built on the zynqultrascaleplus. The
buffer pool code should be re-usable for other platforms as well.
