Since this is a regression and the commit which introduced it is
identified, I suggest to explicitly mark it in commit message. For
example with:
Fixes: "qsv: enforcing continuous memory layout"

This is not reflected in the commit message which just claims that
there is "a high memory usage". But what I see is transcoding don't
work returning errors. I believe this should be highlighted int he
commit message.
