kmssink : Cannot Open /dev/mxc_vpu with Mainline kernel

[Carlos Rafael Giani]

There is no such device in the mainline kernel. This is part of the 
non-mainline VPU driver from the imx-kerne.

Are you trying to use gstreamer-imx' imxvpudec? With the mainline 
kernel, you have to use v4l2Nvideodec instead (where N is some number 
... just do gst-inspect-1.0 | grep v4l to find it).
