<entry>The number of buffers requested or granted. If count == 0, then
<constant>VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS</constant> will set <structfield>index</structfield>
to the current number of created buffers, and it will check the validity of
<structfield>memory</structfield> and <structfield>format.type</structfield>.
If those are invalid -1 is returned and errno is set to &EINVAL;,
otherwise <constant>VIDIOC_CREATE_BUFS</constant> returns 0. It will
never set errno to &EBUSY; in this particular case.</entry>
