okay so bestie, you're in the Kernel API Manual and this page is v4l2_m2m_cancel_job(9) 💅✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

v4l2_m2m_cancel_job — cancel pending jobs for the context 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void v4l2_m2m_cancel_job (struct v4l2_m2m_ctx *m2m_ctx );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• m2m_ctx — the m2m context with jobs to be canceled 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so when streamoff or release gets called on any context, this is the cleanup situation, and here's the vibe check:

• 1] If the context is currently running, then abort job will be called 🔥
• 2] If the context is queued, then the context will be removed from the job_queue 🧹

literally the whole point is handling those pending jobs for the context, no cap 💖
