Sounds good. I will get started. If I am going to work directly on 
soc/libavfilter, I'll initially keep AVFilterBuffer and 
AVFilterSamplesRef separate from the Pic and PicRef so I don't break 
video. Hope this is ok? Once tested, should be simple to remove 
AVFilterPic and make PicRef also reference AVFilterBuffer.
