v4l2: v4l2_camera_proxy: Don't return -EINVAL for zero sizeimage in REQBUFS
If VIDIOC_REQBUFS returns -EINVAL, it signals to the application that the requested buffer or memory type is not supported. If we return -EINVAL due to a zero sizeimage, then the application will think that we don't support a memory type that we actually do. We cannot error on a zero sizeimage, because reqbufs could be called merely to probe what IO methods we support; qv4l2, for example, called reqbufs once with userptr and once more with mmap, both times with count=1. On the other hand, sizeimage will be zero for formats whose size we don't know how to calculate, such as MJPEG. If we try to stream such formats anyway, we will get a floating point exception and crash. Issue a warning for now, and don't return -EINVAL, so that we can continue operation.
