If there are multiple Wayland event listeners in different threads we get the formats and modifiers pushed concurrently which leads to segfault from GArray methods. This patch protects the array. The problem occurs e.g. when using vaapipostproc together with Qt qmlglsink, QtWayland will get the events as well as VAAPI.

Overview
--------
gstreamer-vaapi consists in a collection of VA-API based plugins for
GStreamer and helper libraries.
* `vaapi<CODEC>dec' is used to decode JPEG, MPEG-2, MPEG-4:2, H.264
AVC, H.264 MVC, VP8, VP9, VC-1, WMV3, HEVC videos to VA surfaces,
depending on the actual value of <CODEC> and the underlying
hardware capabilities. This plugin is also able to implicitly
download the decoded surface to raw YUV buffers.
* `vaapi<CODEC>enc' is used to encode into MPEG-2, H.264 AVC, H.264
MVC, JPEG, VP8, VP9, HEVC videos, depending on the actual value of
<CODEC> (mpeg2, h264, etc.) and the hardware capabilities. By
default, raw format bitstreams are generated, so the result may be
piped to a muxer, e.g. qtmux for MP4 containers.
* `vaapipostproc' is used to filter VA surfaces, for e.g. scaling,
deinterlacing (bob, motion-adaptive, motion-compensated), noise
reduction or sharpening. This plugin is also used to upload raw
YUV pixels into VA surfaces.
* `vaapisink' is used to render VA surfaces to an X11 or Wayland
display. This plugin also features a "headless" mode (DRM) more
suited to remote transcode scenarios, with faster throughput.
* `vaapioverlay` is a accelerated compositor that blends or
composite different video streams.
Features
--------
* VA-API support from 0.39
* JPEG, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264 AVC, H.264 MVC, VP8, VC-1, HEVC and
VP9 ad-hoc decoders
* MPEG-2, H.264 AVC,H.264 MVC, JPEG, VP8, VP9 and HEVC ad-hoc
encoders
* OpenGL rendering through VA/GLX or GLX texture-from-pixmap + FBO
* Support for EGL backend
* Support for the Wayland display server
* Support for headless decode pipelines with VA/DRM
* Support for major HW video decoding solutions on Linux (AMD,
Intel, NVIDIA)
* Support for HW video encoding on Intel HD Graphics hardware
* Support for VA Video Processing APIs (VA/VPP)
- Scaling and color conversion
- Image enhancement filters: Sharpening, Noise Reductio, Color
Balance, Skin-Tone-Enhancement
- Advanced deinterlacing: Motion-Adaptive, Motion-Compensated
Requirements
------------
Hardware requirements
* Hardware supported by i965 driver or iHD, such as
- Intel Ironlake, Sandybridge, Ivybridge, Haswell, Broadwell,
Skylake, etc. (HD Graphics)
- Intel BayTrail, Braswell
- Intel Poulsbo (US15W)
- Intel Medfield or Cedar Trail
* Hardware supported by AMD Radeonsi driver, such as the list below
- AMD Carrizo, Bristol Ridge, Raven Ridge, Picasso, Renoir
- AMD Tonga, Fiji, Polaris XX, Vega XX, Navi 1X
* Other hardware supported by Mesa VA gallium state-tracker
Usage
-----
VA elements are automatically plugged into GStreamer pipelines. So,
using playbin should work as is.
However, here are a few alternate pipelines that could be manually
constructed.
* Play an H.264 video with an MP4 container in fullscreen mode
$ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/video.mp4 ! \
qtdemux ! vaapidecodebin ! vaapisink fullscreen=true
* Play a raw MPEG-2 interlaced stream
$ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/mpeg2.bits ! \
mpegvideoparse ! vaapimpeg2dec ! vaapipostproc ! vaapisink
* Convert from one pixel format to another, while also downscaling
$ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/raw_video.yuv ! \
videoparse format=yuy2 width=1280 height=720 ! \
vaapipostproc format=nv12 height=480 ! vaapisink
* Encode a 1080p stream in raw I420 format into H.264
$ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/raw_video.yuv ! \
videoparse format=i420 width=1920 height=1080 framerate=30/1 ! \
vaapih264enc rate-control=cbr tune=high-compression ! \
qtmux ! filesink location=/path/to/encoded_video.mp4
