You patch v4l2-compliance. It makes sense: we're making a uAPI modification,
so that implies changes to v4l2-compliance.

So v4l2-compliance needs to understand EOPNOTSUPP for CREATE_BUFS: if it is
returned it has to check that it is used correctly: so there has to be at
least one buffer type for which CREATE_BUFS actually works. In other words,
v4l2-compliance must check that EOPNOTSUPP isn't used as a replacement
for ENOTTY.

This can be done in testReqBufs().
