    mpeg2: allocate dummy picture for first field based I-frame. · 5975def8
    Gwenole Beauchesne authored
    In P-pictures, prediction shall be made from the two most recently
    decoded reference fields. However, when the first I-frame is a field,
    the next field of the current picture could be a P-picture but only a
    single field was decoded so far. In this case, create a dummy picture
    with POC = -1 that will be used as reference.
    
    Some VA drivers would error out if P-pictures don't have a forward
    reference picture. This is true in general but not in this very specific
    initial case.
