--- Comment #8 from Nicolas Dufresne (stormer) <nicolas at ndufresne.ca> ---
The decoder stream lock is likely redundant, but we are stuck with it, since
it's in the API/Abi.

That lock though should always be dropped when a flush or a transition to ready
State occurs. Subclass are responsible for that if these subclass have a
separated thread, like omxvideodec and v4l2videodec.
