Hans Verkuil fac710e45d [media] vb2: fix nasty vb2_thread regression
The vb2_thread implementation was made generic and was moved from
videobuf2-v4l2.c to videobuf2-core.c in commit af3bac1a. Unfortunately
that clearly was never tested since it broke read() causing NULL address
references.

The root cause was confused handling of vb2_buffer vs v4l2_buffer (the pb
pointer in various core functions).

The v4l2_buffer no longer exists after moving the code into the core and
it is no longer needed. However, the vb2_thread code passed a pointer to
a vb2_buffer to the core functions were a v4l2_buffer pointer was expected
and vb2_thread expected that the vb2_buffer fields would be filled in
correctly.

This is obviously wrong since v4l2_buffer != vb2_buffer. Note that the
pb pointer is a void pointer, so no type-checking took place.

This patch fixes this problem:

1) allow pb to be NULL for vb2_core_(d)qbuf. The vb2_thread code will use
   a NULL pointer here since they don't care about v4l2_buffer anyway.
2) let vb2_core_dqbuf pass back the index of the received buffer. This is
   all vb2_thread needs: this index is the index into the q->bufs array
   and vb2_thread just gets the vb2_buffer from there.
3) the fileio->b pointer (that originally contained a v4l2_buffer) is
   removed altogether since it is no longer needed.

Tested with vivid and the cobalt driver.
