I ran some tests on bttv which all ran well.

Note that the code already allowed for going from say 4 buffers to 1,
and the old code path for reqbufs was already calling __videobuf_free()
before re-allocating the buffers again. So in essence this just changes
things to allow the 4 buffers to 1 case to also be 4 buffers to 0.

Regards,

Hans
