During decoding setup stage for complex codecs like HEVC driver can detect inconsistent values in controls or some other task, like allocating memory, can fail. Currently setup stage has no way of signalling error. Change return type of setup callback to int and if returned value is not zero, skip decoding and finish job immediately with error flag. While currently there is only one place when setup can fail, it's expected that there will be more such cases in the future, when HEVC decoding is improved.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
