I don't think this feature is only applied to stateless codec. Stateful 
codec could reclaim the previous memory as well.

The implementation now just leave all those problems to the conscience 
of the application, no protection from the kernel which could crash the 
hardware easily.

I am not against  on this feature, I just wish it would be more safe and 
more complete.

Even with the secure decoding, at least someone should offer the DPB 
info or we just don't need this.

I am sure stateless decoder could work well with that despite the 
performance impact on buffer looking up.
