Subject: [PATCH] camera3: Add flush

Flush is used to quiesce a camera device as quickly as possible, which
can be used to deal with a pathological client (requests a frame
duration of hours then dying) as well as speed up stream configuration
changes when the outstanding requests data isn't required.

+     *
+     * All requests currently in the HAL are expected to be returned as soon as
+     * possible.  Not-in-process requests should return errors immediately. Any
+     * interruptible hardware blocks should be stopped, and any uninterruptible
+     * blocks should be waited on.
+     *
+     * flush() should only return when there are no more outstanding buffers or
+     * requests left in the HAL.  The framework may call configure_streams (as
+     * the HAL state is now quiesced) or may issue new requests.
+     *
+     * A flush() call should only take 100ms or less. The maximum time it can

+     *          called by the framework.
