This patch series implements parameters and statistics buffer sharing in
software ISP.  It implements the following software ISP TODOs:

- 2. Reconsider stats sharing
- 5. Store ISP parameters in per-frame buffers

The series consists of three parts:

1. introductory cleanups and fixes
2. parameters buffers changes
3. statistics buffers changes

It’s a way to make params correspond to the respective frames, which is
currently not the case with software ISP.

This series is RFC because it’ll conflict with the GPU ISP and libipa
changes in progress (but the first 4 preparatory patches can be separated and handled independently).

Changes in v3:
- Rebased on current master.
- setIspParams renamed to paramsComputed.
- availableParams_ changed from queue to vector.
- Input buffers queued per each output.
- Busy loops removed.
- releaseIspParams renamed to paramsBufferReady.
- File descriptor numbers are no longer used as buffer identifiers.
- Miscellaneous typo fixes and other cosmetic changes.
- Fixes of buffer handling on errors.
- Missing unmapping of params buffers added.
- Missing PROT_READ flag added to mmap.
- Unnecessary SwIspStatsRef wrapper removed.

Changes in v2:
- Rebase on master and make it working with GPU ISP.
